Sage

Sage's reported carbon emissions

Sage, a prominent company in computer and related services based in Great Britain, is actively engaged in addressing its climate impact. The company has set ambitious targets, including a commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030, against a 2019 baseline. This aligns with their broader goal of achieving net-zero GHG emissions across their value chain by 2040. In terms of reported emissions, Sage disclosed the following for the 2025 reporting year: * **Total Emissions:** Approximately 167.4 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 1 Emissions:** Approximately 1.1 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2 Emissions:** Approximately 3.1 million kg CO2e (market-based) and 3.1 million kg CO2e (location-based). * **Scope 3 Emissions:** Approximately 166 million kg CO2e. Key contributors to Sage's Scope 3 emissions include purchased goods and services, and the use of sold products. For the 2024 reporting year, total emissions were approximately 193.4 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 1.4 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 3.2 million kg CO2e (location-based), and Scope 3 emissions at approximately 190.2 million kg CO2e. Sage's climate commitments are validated by organisations such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which confirms their targets are consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C. The company is making progress towards its targets, with current indications suggesting they are on track for their five-year near-term goals. Sage also aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by the middle of the current decade.
