Oshkosh

Oshkosh, headquartered in the US and operating in the furniture and other manufactured goods sector, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 372.6 million kg CO2e in 2023. This total includes 65 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 72 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 235.6 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Notably, its 2023 Scope 3 emissions included approximately 14.7 million kg CO2e from business travel, 47.9 million kg CO2e from employee commuting, 10 million kg CO2e from the use of sold products, and 9 million kg CO2e from waste generated in operations.

Looking back, in 2022, Oshkosh's Scope 1 emissions were around 69.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 72.4 million kg CO2e. In 2021, these figures were about 61 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 68.5 million kg CO2e for Scope 2. The company's Scope 1 and 2 emissions in 2020 totalled approximately 143.6 million kg CO2e (67.8 million kg CO2e Scope 1 and 75.8 million kg CO2e Scope 2). In 2019, Scope 1 and 2 emissions combined were around 162.8 million kg CO2e (70.9 million kg CO2e Scope 1 and 91.9 million kg CO2e Scope 2).

Oshkosh Corporation has set ambitious climate commitments validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company is committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050. As part of its near-term targets, Oshkosh aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 57.7% by 2033, using 2021 as a base year. Additionally, it commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of sold products by 32.5% by 2033, against a 2022 base year. For long-term goals, Oshkosh plans to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050 from a 2021 base year, and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and use of sold products by 90% by 2050 from a 2022 base year.

The company has also established global, company-wide goals to reduce both energy intensity and GHG intensity (normalised by net sales) by 25% by 2024 at its facilities, based on a 2014 baseline for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. An additional target is a 7.5% reduction in GHG intensity normalised by revenue by 2025.
