Crh

CRH, an Irish cement, lime, and plaster company, reported approximately 46.5 billion kg CO2e in total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions for 2025. This figure represents an estimated 23.3 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1, about 2.6 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and roughly 17.5 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. In 2024, total emissions were approximately 46.8 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 23.7 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 2.5 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 17.4 billion kg CO2e. For 2023, total emissions were approximately 44.0 billion kg CO2e, comprising around 23.1 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1, roughly 2.3 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and an estimated 13.1 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3.

CRH has set several climate commitments. The company aims for net-zero emissions by 2050. Near-term targets include:

• Reducing gross Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 33.5% per tonne of cementitious product by 2030, from a 2021 base year.
• Reducing absolute gross Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions from other activities by 42.0% by 2030, from a 2021 base year.
• Reducing gross Scope 3 GHG emissions by 23.5% from purchased clinker and cement per tonne purchased by 2030, from a 2021 base year.

These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario.
