Schrodinger's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Schrödinger reported total carbon emissions of approximately 22,000,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 20,576,000 kg CO2e. Within this, the largest sources were the use of sold products (approximately 12,075,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (about 6,282,000 kg CO2e). Scope 1 emissions from stationary combustion were reported at 446,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity totalled approximately 1,144,000 kg CO2e. In 2023, the company’s total emissions were about 31,431,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions again dominating at approximately 31,431,000 kg CO2e. The breakdown included significant emissions from the use of sold products (around 19,090,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (approximately 10,762,000 kg CO2e). Scope 1 emissions were reported at 249,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions at about 847,000 kg CO2e. Schrödinger has committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, with a long-term reduction target encompassing all scopes. The company is actively working towards this goal, although specific near-term reduction targets have not been disclosed. Their commitment reflects a growing trend in the software and services sector to address climate change proactively.
