Huawei's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Huawei has not disclosed specific carbon emissions data in kg CO2e. However, the company has set ambitious climate commitments aimed at significantly reducing its carbon footprint. By 2030, Huawei aims for a 47% reduction in its overall carbon emissions across all scopes, including Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions, using 2020 as the baseline year. Looking further ahead, Huawei has committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. This long-term goal includes a substantial reduction target of 90% for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2040, based on a 2022 baseline. Additionally, Huawei plans to reduce Scope 3 emissions by 90% within the same timeframe. In terms of near-term targets, Huawei has set a goal to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50.4% by 2032, while also targeting a 58.14% reduction in Scope 3 emissions per million CNY value added during the same period. These commitments align with industry standards for climate action and demonstrate Huawei's dedication to sustainability and reducing its environmental impact.
