Rockwell Automation

Rockwell Automation, a US-based electrical machinery and apparatus company, has established comprehensive climate commitments, including a goal of achieving carbon neutrality for Scopes 1 and 2 emissions by 2030. This target was announced in November 2020.

In terms of emissions data, for the reporting year 2025, Rockwell Automation reported approximately 24,075,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions and approximately 69,808,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 emissions. For the same year, Scope 3 emissions data were not fully disclosed, with a missing data point for "purchased goods and services."

Looking at previous years:

• In 2024, Scope 3 emissions totalled approximately 13,168,000,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from the "use of sold products" and "purchased goods and services".
• For 2023, Scope 3 emissions were approximately 19,354,000,000 kg CO2e, with the "use of sold products" being the largest contributor. Scope 1 and 2 combined emissions for 2023 were approximately 109,965,000 kg CO2e.
• In 2022, Scope 3 emissions amounted to approximately 15,331,000,000 kg CO2e, with "use of sold products" and "upstream transportation and distribution" as major components.
• For 2021, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 18,649,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 91,051,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not disclosed for this year.
• In 2020, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 20,539,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 87,561,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not disclosed.
• In 2015, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 43,936,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 93,364,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not disclosed.
• For 2014, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 43,712,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 92,888,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not disclosed.

Rockwell Automation has set ambitious Science Based Targets (SBTi). They commit to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 54.6% by FY2033 from a FY2024 base year. Additionally, they commit to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 32.5% within the same timeframe. For the long term, Rockwell Automation aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90.0% by FY2050 from a FY2024 base year, and also commit to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90.0% within the same timeframe. Furthermore, the company commits to achieving net-zero GHG emissions across its value chain by FY2050. These SBTi targets are considered consistent with keeping warming to 1.5°C.
