Raspberry Pi Foundation

Company website

The Raspberry Pi Foundation, a prominent UK-based charity, was established in 2009 with the mission to promote the study of computer science and related subjects. Headquartered in Cambridge, GB, the Foundation has made significant strides in educational technology, particularly in the realm of affordable computing. Renowned for its innovative Raspberry Pi single-board computers, the Foundation has revolutionised access to programming and electronics for learners worldwide. These compact devices are celebrated for their versatility and cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for both educational institutions and hobbyists. With a strong commitment to fostering creativity and technical skills, the Raspberry Pi Foundation has positioned itself as a leader in the educational technology sector, achieving notable milestones such as the sale of millions of units globally. Its impact on STEM education continues to inspire a new generation of innovators.

Raspberry Pi Foundation's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, the Raspberry Pi Foundation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 37,470 kg CO2e. This figure includes 6,850 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,860 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and a significant 28,760 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Foundation's emissions data reflects a commitment to transparency and accountability in its environmental impact. Comparatively, in 2022, the Foundation disclosed only Scope 3 emissions, which amounted to about 27,060 kg CO2e. This indicates an increase in total emissions in 2023, primarily driven by Scope 3 activities. Currently, the Raspberry Pi Foundation has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in recognised climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal reduction commitments suggests an opportunity for the Foundation to enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability. Overall, while the Raspberry Pi Foundation has made strides in emissions reporting, further action towards emissions reduction and climate commitments would strengthen its environmental stewardship.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks

Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.

Raspberry Pi Foundation is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
