Nvidia's reported carbon emissions
Nvidia's Carbon Emissions and Climate Commitments:
For the fiscal year 2026, Nvidia reported a total of approximately 10.7 billion kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 9.8 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were about 568,000 kg CO2e.
In fiscal year 2025, Nvidia's total emissions were approximately 6.9 billion kg CO2e (Scope 3). Scope 1 emissions were about 9 million kg CO2e, while Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were reported as 0 kg CO2e.
For fiscal year 2024, Nvidia's total emissions amounted to approximately 3.6 billion kg CO2e (Scope 3). Scope 1 emissions were approximately 8.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were about 40.6 million kg CO2e.
Nvidia has established several climate commitments and reduction targets. The company has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% by fiscal year 2030, using fiscal year 2023 as a baseline. This target aligns with a 1.5-degree Celsius warming scenario. Furthermore, Nvidia aims to achieve and maintain 100% renewable electricity for its offices and data centres under its operational control by the end of fiscal year 2025 and annually thereafter. This initiative is expected to result in zero Scope 2 market-based emissions by the end of fiscal year 2025. Nvidia also has a target to reduce Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 75% per PetaFLOP by fiscal year 2030.
