Safran's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Safran reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 70.9 million kg CO2e, comprising 175,711,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 146,335,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and approximately 70.6 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has set ambitious targets to reduce its emissions, committing to a 30% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2025 and a 50.4% reduction by 2030, both compared to a 2018 baseline. Additionally, Safran aims to cut Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 42.5% per available seat kilometre by 2035, also against a 2018 baseline. Safran is part of the Air Transport Action Group (ATAG), which has pledged to achieve carbon neutrality for the entire air transport sector by 2050. This commitment reflects the company's alignment with industry-wide climate goals and its proactive approach to addressing climate change. Safran's targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), ensuring they are consistent with the reductions necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
