Schrodinger's score of 39 is higher than 62% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
In 2024, Schrödinger, headquartered in the United States, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 22,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 446,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from stationary combustion, and 1,144,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions related to purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 20,576,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses various categories such as the use of sold products (12,075,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (6,282,000 kg CO2e). In 2023, Schrödinger's emissions were slightly higher, totalling approximately 42,193,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 249,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 847,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were significant, reaching about 41,193,000 kg CO2e, driven largely by the use of sold products (19,090,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (10,762,000 kg CO2e). Schrödinger has committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, with a long-term target encompassing all scopes of emissions. This commitment reflects their proactive approach to climate action, although specific near-term reduction targets have not been detailed. The company is actively engaged in sustainability initiatives and has reported its emissions data through various platforms, including the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and CDP. Overall, Schrödinger's emissions data and climate commitments illustrate a significant focus on reducing their carbon footprint while navigating the complexities of emissions across all scopes.
