Arrow ECS's reported carbon emissions
Arrow ECS's carbon emissions data for 2025 indicates a total of approximately 16.2 billion kg CO2e. This figure encompasses Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. Scope 3 emissions represented the largest portion, at approximately 16.2 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services (approximately 11.9 billion kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 4.0 billion kg CO2e) being the most significant categories. Scope 2 emissions, on a market-based approach, were approximately 18.4 million kg CO2e, and Scope 1 emissions were approximately 6.2 million kg CO2e.
In 2024, total emissions were approximately 9.3 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 3 accounting for the majority. Purchased goods and services were approximately 5.4 billion kg CO2e, and the use of sold products was approximately 3.6 billion kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions were approximately 17.0 million kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 1 emissions were approximately 8.0 million kg CO2e.
For 2023, total emissions were approximately 8.8 billion kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were approximately 8.8 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services at approximately 6.1 billion kg CO2e and the use of sold products at approximately 2.4 billion kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions were approximately 20.5 million kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 1 emissions were approximately 9.2 million kg CO2e.
Arrow ECS has set ambitious climate commitments. They are working towards a goal to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 10% by the end of 2025, against a 2022 baseline. Furthermore, Arrow Electronics, Inc. (the ultimate parent company) has committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030, using a 2023 base year. This aligns with a 1.5°C warming scenario. Beyond direct operations, Arrow Electronics, Inc. is also committed to ensuring that 85% of its suppliers by spend (covering purchased goods and services) will have science-based targets by 2030. Additionally, they aim for 60% of suppliers by spend (covering upstream transportation and distribution) and 30% of customers by revenue (covering the use of sold products) to have science-based targets by 2030. The organisation also has a long-term "Net Zero 2050" goal.
