SNCF's reported carbon emissions

**SNCF's Commitment to Climate Action: Emissions and Reduction Targets** SNCF, headquartered in France, is committed to significant carbon emission reductions. For the year 2025, the company reported a total of approximately 12.4 billion kg CO2e. This figure is composed of Scope 1 emissions amounting to about 1.84 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) at approximately 830 million kg CO2e, and a substantial Scope 3 contribution of roughly 9.78 billion kg CO2e. The largest contributors within Scope 3 for 2025 include upstream transportation and distribution at about 3.93 billion kg CO2e and purchased goods and services at approximately 2.40 billion kg CO2e. In 2024, SNCF's total emissions were approximately 12.38 billion kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of about 1.88 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 971 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 9.53 billion kg CO2e. SNCF has set ambitious climate targets. The company aims for a complete decarbonisation of its transport and building activities by 2050. Additionally, SNCF has established a near-term goal to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 42% between 2022 and 2030, a target validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In line with this, SNCF reported a 6.5% reduction in its emissions in 2025 compared to 2024, and a 13% reduction compared to 2022. Another commitment involves reducing Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 30% for transport activities and by 50% for the construction sector business, with a 2015 baseline and a 2030 target. Furthermore, SNCF has a target to reduce its GHG emissions within scopes 1 and 2 by 26% by 2030, using 2017 as the reference year, and also aims to reduce Scope 3 emissions related to energy by 26% by 2030 from the same 2017 baseline. The company also aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
