The most comprehensive emissions data available is for 2022, with a total of approximately 48.69 million kg CO2e. This includes Scope 1 emissions of about 62,700 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of roughly 4.21 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions in 2022 were substantial, amounting to approximately 44.42 million kg CO2e, with significant contributions from purchased goods and services (around 6.83 million kg CO2e), business travel (approximately 2.79 million kg CO2e), and the use of sold products (about 28 million kg CO2e). For 2021, Spirent Communications reported total emissions of approximately 4.23 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 99,500 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at around 4.13 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were also reported, with purchased goods and services contributing approximately 1.25 million kg CO2e and business travel around 1.21 million kg CO2e. In 2020, total emissions were approximately 4.52 million kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 at about 91,800 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at around 4.43 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for business travel were approximately 762,000 kg CO2e. From 2013 to 2019, the company reported Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, with Scope 1 emissions generally around 150,000 kg CO2e or higher in the earlier years, and Scope 2 emissions ranging from approximately 4.0 million kg CO2e in 2018 to about 6.36 million kg CO2e in 2012. Scope 3 emissions were not consistently reported for these earlier years. Spirent Communications has established a long-term target to reach net zero emissions across its value chain by the end of 2035. This commitment is supported by initiatives aimed at achieving climate neutrality for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, with a long-term target in place. The company's emissions data is inherited from its ultimate parent company, Keysight Technologies, Inc., as part of a corporate family relationship.
