Samsung's reported carbon emissions

Samsung's climate commitments focus on achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. The company has outlined several interim targets to support this long-term goal.

For the reporting year 2025, Samsung reported total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of approximately 121.9 billion kg CO2e. This figure comprises:

  • Scope 1 emissions: Approximately 4.6 billion kg CO2e.
  • Scope 2 emissions (market-based): Approximately 9.5 billion kg CO2e.
  • Scope 3 emissions: Approximately 103.4 billion kg CO2e, with the largest contributors being the use of sold products (approximately 79.6 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 10.9 billion kg CO2e).

In 2024, total GHG emissions were approximately 119.6 billion kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of approximately 4.7 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 10.2 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 100.7 billion kg CO2e.

Samsung has made commitments to reduce its environmental impact. Notably, the Device Solutions (DS) Division aims for net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050, while the Device eXperience (DX) Division plans to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030. The DX division has made significant progress, reaching 93.4% renewable energy conversion by the end of 2023, including 100% renewable energy use at major global manufacturing sites.

Further reduction targets include achieving net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by the middle of this decade (2025). Additionally, Samsung committed to a 30% reduction in absolute GHG emissions by 2030 from a 2020 baseline across scopes 1 and 2. The company also plans to transition all corporate vehicles to electric vehicles by 2027.
