OpenEye Scientific Software, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Cadence Design Systems, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and initiatives. While OpenEye does not have its own documented reduction targets, it inherits climate initiatives from Cadence Design Systems, Inc. This includes participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions in line with climate science. The specific targets and performance metrics from Cadence Design Systems, Inc. are relevant to understanding OpenEye's climate commitments. As part of its corporate family, OpenEye aligns with Cadence's broader sustainability goals, which may include commitments to renewable energy and emissions reduction strategies. However, without specific data or targets from OpenEye itself, the details of these initiatives remain general. In summary, while OpenEye Scientific Software, Inc. does not currently report its own emissions data or reduction targets, it is positioned within a corporate structure that prioritises climate action through inherited commitments from Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
