Palo Alto Networks

Palo Alto Networks, a US-based computer and related services company, reported its latest carbon emissions for 2025 as about 983.6 million kg CO2e. This includes approximately 3.1 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 14.1 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 market-based emissions, and 966.5 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.

The company has set several ambitious climate commitments. Palo Alto Networks is committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by fiscal year 2040. This long-term target includes a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by FY2040 from a FY2021 base year, and a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same timeframe.

For the near term, Palo Alto Networks aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 35% by the end of fiscal year 2027, compared to a fiscal year 2021 baseline. They also commit to reducing Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 40% per million USD value added within the same timeframe. Furthermore, the company targets that 65% of its suppliers, by emissions covering purchased goods and services, will have science-based targets by 2027. These targets are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are considered consistent with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C. Palo Alto Networks is also a signatory of the Climate Pledge.
