In 2024, Kimball Electronics reported total carbon emissions of approximately 152,199,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,110,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 27,869,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and a significant 122,220,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major contributions from purchased goods and services (about 88,335,000 kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 14,504,000 kg CO2e). For 2023, the company disclosed emissions of approximately 197,227,000 kg CO2e globally, with 2,010,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 31,293,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and 197,228,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. Notably, the 2023 data indicates a substantial reliance on Scope 3 emissions, particularly from purchased goods and services, which accounted for about 154,947,000 kg CO2e. Despite the extensive emissions data, Kimball Electronics has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of its operations. Overall, Kimball Electronics is actively monitoring its carbon footprint across all scopes but currently lacks formal commitments to reduce emissions.
