In 2023, Safran reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 380,973 tonnes CO2e, comprising 167,774 tonnes from Scope 1 and about 213,199 tonnes from Scope 2 emissions. The company also generated significant Scope 3 emissions, with approximately 61,800,000 tonnes CO2e attributed to the use of sold products alone. Safran has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50.4% by 2030, using 2018 as the base year. Additionally, the company targets a 42.5% reduction in Scope 3 emissions per available seat kilometre by 2035, also from a 2018 baseline. These targets include biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks, although they do not account for non-CO2 effects that may contribute to aviation-induced warming. Overall, Safran's climate strategy reflects a strong commitment to sustainability within the aerospace and defence sector, aligning with industry standards for greenhouse gas reduction.
