Tuv Sud's reported carbon emissions

TÜV SÜD, a prominent engineering services firm headquartered in Germany, reported a total of approximately 300.2 million kg CO2e in 2025. This figure encompasses Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. The breakdown for 2025 includes approximately 33.0 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, and approximately 37.5 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). Scope 3 emissions were the largest contributor, totalling approximately 229.8 million kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services being the most significant category within this scope, accounting for roughly 88.7 million kg CO2e.

In 2024, TÜV SÜD's total emissions were approximately 312.0 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 30.4 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at approximately 37.0 million kg CO2e (market-based). Scope 3 emissions for 2024 amounted to around 244.5 million kg CO2e. The previous year, 2023, saw total emissions of approximately 311.6 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 28.3 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at approximately 33.7 million kg CO2e (market-based). Scope 3 emissions for 2023 were approximately 249.7 million kg CO2e.

TÜV SÜD has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for carbon neutrality in its business operations (Scope 1, 2, and business travel within Scope 3) by 2025. This includes minimising greenhouse gas emissions and resource consumption, with any residual emissions to be compensated for through certified projects.

Furthermore, TÜV SÜD has a long-term goal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050. As part of this commitment, the company aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2050, relative to a 2023 base year. Additionally, they plan to reduce absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 90% within the same timeframe.

For the near term, TÜV SÜD has committed to a 42% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, based on a 2023 baseline. They also plan to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from specific categories, including purchased goods and services, capital goods, upstream transportation and distribution activities, and business travel, by 25% by 2030. These targets cover over 70% of their identified GHG sources.

TÜV SÜD's emissions data is cascaded from its parent organisation, TÜV SÜD AG, which has also set net-zero targets and committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
