Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:
Rolls-Royce Power Systems AG is committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, using 2019 as its base year. To support this long-term vision, the company has established the following near-term targets:
- Scope 1 & 2 Emissions: A reduction of 46.2% by 2030, measured against the 2019 baseline.
- Scope 3 Emissions (Use of Sold Products): A reduction of 35% by 2030, also measured against the 2019 baseline.
These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are consistent with limiting global warming to 1.5°C. The company's net-zero target encompasses 90% reduction across absolute scope 1, 2, and scope 3 emissions by 2050. The target boundary specifically includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
