Borgwarner's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, BorgWarner reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 35.8 billion kg CO2e, comprising 59,119,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 214,232,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 36.6 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has set ambitious targets to reduce its absolute greenhouse gas emissions by 85% by 2030 from a 2021 baseline for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, BorgWarner aims for a 25% reduction in Scope 3 emissions within the same timeframe. These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with the reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C. BorgWarner is also committed to achieving carbon neutrality in its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2035. As of the end of 2023, the company has successfully reduced its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 32%, although it experienced a slight increase of 4.6% in Scope 3 emissions due to business growth and inflationary pressures. The company employs various strategies, including a Decarbonization Toolbox and Smart Metering, to facilitate emissions reductions across its operations.
