In 2023, ADTRAN reported total carbon emissions of approximately 11.5 million kg CO2e. This figure includes about 1.5 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 emissions combined, while Scope 3 emissions accounted for approximately 10 million kg CO2e. The emissions data for 2022 mirrored this, with the same totals reported. ADTRAN has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, ADTRAN's climate commitments and emissions data reflect a focus on transparency, although further initiatives may be necessary to align with industry standards for carbon reduction.
