As of 2018, Schindler's total carbon emissions amounted to approximately 186,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 121,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions (mobile combustion) and about 47,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (indirect emissions from purchased electricity). This reflects a slight decrease in total emissions from 2017, where they reported approximately 192,000,000 kg CO2e, and from 2016, which had total emissions of about 191,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Schindler. The company has not outlined specific initiatives aimed at reducing its carbon footprint, which places it in a broader industry context where many organisations are increasingly committing to ambitious climate goals. Schindler's headquarters is located in Switzerland (CH), and while they have made progress in managing their emissions, further commitments and transparency regarding future reduction strategies would enhance their sustainability profile.
