+43 vs industry average
Nvidia’s score of 60 is higher than 81% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
Semiconductors has typical carbon intensity
The Semiconductors industry has reduced its overall emissions by 29% since 2018
Scope 3 accounts for ••• of total emissions.
NVIDIA, a US-based semiconductor company, reported total calculated emissions of approximately 11.02 billion kg CO2e in 2026. This includes approximately 9.8 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 568,000 kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2 emissions, and approximately 10.70 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.
The company has set several climate commitments and reduction targets. NVIDIA aims to reduce its total Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 25% between FY19 and FY25, which aligns with a 1.5-degree Celsius warming scenario. Furthermore, NVIDIA expects to achieve and maintain 100% renewable electricity for its offices and data centres under operational control by the end of FY25. This commitment is intended to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions in line with prevalent climate science standards, and is expected to result in zero market-based Scope 2 emissions by the end of FY25.
NVIDIA has also committed to Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) near-term targets. These include reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by FY2030 from a FY2023 base year. Additionally, NVIDIA commits to reducing Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 75% per PetaFLOP within the same timeframe. These targets cover greenhouse gas emissions from company operations (Scopes 1 and 2) and are consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C.
