Spie's reported carbon emissions
SPIE, a company operating in Research and development services (73) with its headquarters in France (FR), has outlined its carbon emissions and climate commitments.
For the reporting year 2025, SPIE reported a total of approximately 3.59 billion kg CO2e in calculated emissions. This breaks down into approximately 104.77 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, approximately 18.34 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (location-based), and approximately 3.48 billion kg CO2e for Scope 3.
In the preceding year, 2024, SPIE's total calculated emissions were approximately 3.28 billion kg CO2e, comprising about 122.88 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, approximately 11.90 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (location-based), and about 3.15 billion kg CO2e for Scope 3.
SPIE has established several climate commitments. Notably, the company aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. As a near-term target, SPIE is committed to reducing its direct carbon footprint (Scopes 1 & 2) by 25% in absolute terms by 2025, compared to a 2019 baseline. This target specifically relates to emissions generated by the Group's vehicle fleet and real estate.
Furthermore, SPIE is committed to reducing its Scope 3 emissions from business travel and employee commuting by 20% by 2025, also against a 2019 baseline. An ambitious target within its Scope 3 upstream emissions is to ensure that 67% of its purchases are made from suppliers who have set ambitious targets for reducing their carbon footprint by 2025. This aligns with SPIE's commitment for 67% of its suppliers, by emissions, covering key categories like purchased goods and services, to have science-based targets by 2025.
For the longer term, SPIE has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030, from a 2019 base year. Additionally, SPIE aims to reduce its Scope 3 GHG emissions by 55% per million EUR value added by 2030. The company's near-term targets for Scopes 1 and 2 are consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
