Bouygues Construction, headquartered in France, has set ambitious climate commitments aimed at significantly reducing its carbon emissions. As of the latest available data, the company has not disclosed specific emissions figures for recent years. However, it has established a target to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 40% by FY2030, using FY2021 as the baseline year. This commitment aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is designed to support global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. In addition to its Scope 1 and 2 targets, Bouygues Construction aims to reduce Scope 3 emissions—which encompass a wide range of indirect emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and more—by 30% per square metre of buildings constructed within the same timeframe. Furthermore, the company plans to cut remaining absolute Scope 3 emissions by 20% by FY2030. Bouygues Construction is also focused on achieving near-zero emissions for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 by the middle of this decade (2025). These initiatives reflect the company's commitment to sustainability and its proactive approach to addressing climate change within the construction and engineering sector.
