In 2023, EM Microelectronic reported total carbon emissions of approximately 30,765,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 2,056,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 263,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 30,765,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. The Scope 3 emissions primarily stem from purchased goods and services, which accounted for about 28,012,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, EM Microelectronic has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2022, the company reported total emissions of approximately 2,563,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3, indicating a significant increase in emissions in 2023. However, the company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, which may limit its ability to effectively manage and reduce its overall emissions. The company’s emissions data from previous years shows a trend of fluctuating emissions, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from about 2,777,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 2,056,000 kg CO2e in 2023. Scope 2 emissions also saw a reduction from approximately 4,622,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 263,000 kg CO2e in 2023. Despite these reductions, the overall increase in Scope 3 emissions highlights the need for a more robust strategy to address climate impact comprehensively. EM Microelectronic's headquarters is located in Switzerland (CH), and while the company has not disclosed specific reduction targets, it continues to report its emissions transparently, aligning with industry standards for climate accountability.
