Air France Klm

Air France-KLM, an air transport services company headquartered in France, reported its latest emissions data for 2025. In that year, the company's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 26.125 billion kg CO2e, with mobile combustion contributing 35 million kg CO2e and stationary combustion contributing 26.09 billion kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were 10 million kg CO2e, while location-based Scope 2 emissions were 20 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2025 totalled about 10.618 billion kg CO2e, including investments at 694 million kg CO2e, capital goods at 1.014 billion kg CO2e, business travel at 87 million kg CO2e, employee commute at 84 million kg CO2e, purchased goods and services at 1.658 billion kg CO2e, waste generated in operations at 17 million kg CO2e, and fuel and energy-related activities at 6.674 billion kg CO2e.

Looking back, in 2024, Air France-KLM's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 25.689 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were 9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were about 9.636 billion kg CO2e. In 2023, total reported emissions were approximately 31.457 billion kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 emissions of 24.743 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of 15 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of 11.2 billion kg CO2e.

Air France-KLM has set ambitious climate commitments. The company targets net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030 across all scopes. They also aim for carbon neutrality in ground operations by 2030, which involves replacing all vehicles with electric models.

The Air France-KLM Group's near-term targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). These include a commitment to reduce well-to-wake Scope 1 jet fuel GHG emissions by 17.8% per revenue-tonne-kilometre (RTK) by 2030 from a 2024 base year. Additionally, the group commits to reducing well-to-wake Scope 1 and 3 jet fuel GHG emissions by 30% per revenue tonne kilometre (RTK) by FY2030 from a FY2019 base year, aligning with a "Well-below 2°C" classification for its Scope 1 and 2 emissions reduction targets and a "1.5°C" classification for more recent targets. The company aims for a 30% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions intensity by 2030 relative to the 2019 baseline (g CO2e/RTK). Long-term targets include a 65% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 3 total emissions by 2050 relative to 2019. These targets are consistent with reductions required to limit global warming in line with the Paris Agreement.
