JinkoSolar, headquartered in China and operating in the Electricity by Solar Photovoltaic industry, reported approximately 34.4 billion kg CO2e in total carbon emissions for 2024. This includes around 138.4 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, approximately 4.86 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and about 29.46 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Specifically, Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services amounted to roughly 25.63 billion kg CO2e in 2024. In 2023, the company's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 104 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were around 5.07 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were about 29.46 billion kg CO2e.

JinkoSolar is committed to ambitious climate goals. They have joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and committed to achieving net-zero GHG emissions across their value chain by 2050. Their near-term targets include a 50.4% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2032, from a 2022 base year. They also aim to increase their active annual source of renewable electricity from 51% in 2022 to 100% by 2030. For Scope 3 emissions, JinkoSolar commits to reducing emissions from purchased goods and services by 58.2% per MW of solar-related product produced by 2032, from a 2022 base year. Long-term targets include a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050 from a 2022 base year, and a 97% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, and downstream transportation and distribution per MW of solar-related product produced within the same timeframe. JinkoSolar also aims to power all solar plants and global operations with 100% renewable energy by 2025.
