More specifically, Volex has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and 2 (location-based) GHG emissions by 90% by fiscal year 2035, using FY2025 as a base year. Additionally, Volex is targeting a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by FY2050 from the FY2025 baseline. For specific Scope 3 categories, Volex commits to reducing emissions from purchased goods and services (Category 1) and the use of sold products (Category 11) by 64% per million USD value added by FY2035, also from a FY2025 base year. Further near-term targets include a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from fuel- and energy-related activities, and waste generated in operations by FY2035.
