Nvidia's reported carbon emissions
In 2025, Nvidia reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 6.9 billion kg CO2e, comprising 12,952,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 228,378,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 6,912,577,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has set ambitious targets to reduce its carbon footprint, committing to a 50% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by FY2030 from a FY2023 base year. This commitment aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is designed to support a 1.5-degree Celsius warming scenario. Nvidia aims to achieve 100% renewable electricity for its offices and data centres by the end of FY25, which is expected to significantly lower its Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, the company has pledged to reduce Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 75% per PetaFLOP within the same timeframe. These initiatives reflect Nvidia's commitment to sustainability and its proactive approach to addressing climate change.
