Telecom Argentina's climate commitments centre on significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions, aligning with a 1.5°C warming scenario. The company has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 58.8% by 2034, using 2022 as the base year. Furthermore, Telecom Argentina aims to achieve a 58.8% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and the use of sold products within the same timeframe. These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 50,422,140 kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 89,289,590 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling about 697,298,970 kg CO2e. The most substantial Scope 3 contributions in 2025 were from purchased goods and services (approximately 498,446,030 kg CO2e), followed by fuel and energy-related activities (approximately 104,251,000 kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 139,793,040 kg CO2e).

For the reporting year 2024, the company reported total emissions of approximately 172,737,500 kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of about 36,070,830 kg CO2e and Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 125,394,930 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data for 2024 included employee commute (approximately 30,479,630 kg CO2e), waste generated in operations (approximately 306,550 kg CO2e), fuel and energy-related activities (approximately 10,116,610 kg CO2e), and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 1,256,910 kg CO2e). Notably, data for purchased goods and services was missing for Scope 3 in 2024.

Earlier reporting years also show emissions data. In 2023, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 23,943,510 kg CO2e and Scope 2 market-based emissions were about 145,637,230 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not reported for 2023. In 2022, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 24,488,670 kg CO2e and Scope 2 location-based emissions were approximately 168,781,320 kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not disclosed for 2022.

Telecom Argentina's reporting demonstrates a commitment to transparency in its climate impact, with initiatives in place to reduce its carbon footprint across its operations and value chain.
