In 2019, Xilinx, Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 27,452,000 kg CO2e, comprising 1,612,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 25,330,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Xilinx has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) targets. The emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD), reflecting the corporate family relationship. The company’s emissions intensity was reported at about 888 kg CO2e per tonne of revenue in 2020, indicating a focus on improving operational efficiency. However, without specific reduction targets or initiatives, Xilinx's climate strategy remains unclear. Overall, while Xilinx has made strides in emissions reporting, further commitments and actionable targets would enhance its climate responsibility profile.
