Joby Aviation's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Joby Aviation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,771,000 kg CO2e, comprising 771,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 984,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and 1,500,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 1 emissions included 173,000 kg CO2e from mobile combustion and 371,000 kg CO2e from stationary combustion. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 565,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 445,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 120,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Joby Aviation has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to establish formalised strategies for significant reductions. As a leader in the aviation industry, Joby Aviation's commitment to addressing climate change is crucial, especially as the sector faces increasing scrutiny regarding its environmental impact.
