Silicon Laboratories, a US-based company in the copper products industry, has reported its carbon emissions for recent years. In 2024, total emissions amounted to approximately 91.1 million kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 emissions of about 52,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of roughly 2.2 million kg CO2e, and substantial Scope 3 emissions of approximately 88.8 million kg CO2e. The largest contributors within Scope 3 were purchased goods and services (about 45.8 million kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (around 27.2 million kg CO2e). In the preceding year, 2023, the company's total emissions were approximately 135.4 million kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of about 39,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 4.0 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling about 131.3 million kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services being the most significant factor at roughly 120.3 million kg CO2e. Silicon Laboratories has set ambitious climate commitments. Notably, the company aims for a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by the end of 2030, using a 2021 baseline. This aligns with a science-based target. Additionally, they are pursuing a 50% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions at their Austin headquarters by the end of 2025, against a 2018 baseline. Progress towards these targets is being monitored, with the company being on track for its five-year targets regarding Scope 1 and 2 reductions by 2030.
