Edison has set several climate commitments. The company aims to achieve net-zero GHG emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3 by 2045, aligning with California's statewide climate goals. This commitment covers the power delivered to customers by Southern California Edison (SCE) and Edison International's enterprisewide operations, including the supply chain. As part of this, SCE is working towards delivering 100% carbon-free power to customers in terms of retail sales by 2045.
Additionally, Edison has near-term absolute reduction targets for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. These targets, cascaded from California's goals, aim for a 40% reduction from 1990 levels by 2030, with long-term targets to achieve an 80% reduction by 2050 for both Scope 1 and Scope 2. For delivered power, there is a long-term net-zero target to reduce total GHG emissions by 95% from 2005 levels by 2045. SCE also has a medium-term intensity target to deliver power with 80% carbon-free resources by 2030.
