Key categories within Scope 3 included approximately 55,338,592,000 kg CO2e from the use of sold products and about 7,278,733,000 kg CO2e from purchased goods and services.

Schneider Electric has set ambitious climate targets. The company aims for carbon neutral operations (Scope 1 and 2) by 2025 and net-zero CO2 emissions for its operations by 2030. They have committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 76% by 2030 from a 2021 base year, with a long-term goal of a 90% reduction by 2050. Additionally, Schneider Electric plans to increase annual sourcing of renewable electricity to 100% by 2030, up from 82% in 2021.

For Scope 3 emissions, Schneider Electric commits to reducing absolute GHG emissions by 25% by 2030 from a 2021 base year, and a 90% reduction by 2050. They also aim to engage with their top 1,000 suppliers to reduce their operations' CO2 emissions by 50% by 2025. The company is working towards a net-zero CO2 supply chain by 2050. Schneider Electric aims for carbon neutrality across its entire value chain (Scopes 1, 2, and 3), including carbon offsets, by 2040, and net-zero CO2 emissions across the entire value chain by 2050. These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), aligning with their Corporate Net-Zero Standard. Schneider Electric also signed The Climate Pledge in 2020.
