Silicon Labs's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Silicon Labs reported total carbon emissions of approximately 135,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 39,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 4,026,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and about 131,327,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This represents a significant portion of their overall emissions, with Scope 3 emissions being the largest contributor. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 107,732,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 137,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,587,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 105,784,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a trend of increasing emissions over the years, particularly in Scope 3, which includes emissions from the supply chain and product use. Silicon Labs has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. However, they have reported emissions data for all three scopes, demonstrating a commitment to transparency in their climate impact. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while they are monitoring their emissions, they may need to establish clearer goals to align with industry standards for climate action.
