Zayo's reported carbon emissions

Zayo, a company operating in the post and telecommunication services industry in the US, has reported significant greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3. For the year 2024, Zayo's total emissions amounted to approximately 240.1 million kg CO2e. This includes Scope 1 emissions of about 14.7 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (location-based) of approximately 66.4 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 158.7 million kg CO2e. In 2022, total emissions were approximately 425.1 million kg CO2e, comprising 10.7 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, 89.0 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (location-based), and 304.4 million kg CO2e for Scope 3. The preceding year, 2021, saw total emissions of approximately 320.9 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 5.2 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (location-based) at 59.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 315.7 million kg CO2e. Emissions data for 2020 are also available, showing Scope 1 emissions of approximately 5.7 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of 193.1 million kg CO2e. Zayo has made substantial climate commitments, aiming for a net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions target across its value chain by FY2045. To achieve this, Zayo has set near-term targets: * A reduction of 97.3% in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by FY2030, using FY2020 as the base year. * A reduction of 42% in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by FY2030, with FY2022 as the base year. Furthermore, Zayo commits to maintaining at least a 97.3% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from FY2030 through FY2045, relative to the FY2020 baseline. Their long-term goal also includes a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by FY2045, based on the FY2022 baseline. These targets are aligned with a 1.5°C warming scenario and have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data and targets are cascaded from the ultimate parent organisation, Zayo Group Holdings, Inc., with Zayo operating as a current subsidiary.
