Darktrace's reported carbon emissions

Darktrace, headquartered in Great Britain, has set ambitious climate commitments aimed at achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by FY2040. Although specific emissions data for the most recent year is not available, the company has established significant reduction targets. Darktrace aims to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 90.7% by FY2030, using FY2021 as the baseline year. Additionally, the company is committed to reducing Scope 3 emissions—covering areas such as purchased goods and services, business travel, and downstream leased assets—by 63% per USD value added within the same timeframe. Looking towards the long term, Darktrace plans to maintain at least a 90.7% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions from FY2030 through FY2040. Furthermore, it aims for a 97% reduction in Scope 3 emissions per USD value added by FY2040, again referencing FY2021 as the baseline. These targets align with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and reflect Darktrace's commitment to addressing climate change and contributing to global sustainability efforts.
