Air Liquide

Air Liquide, headquartered in France and operating in Industrial Gas Manufacturing, has reported its carbon emissions and set ambitious climate targets.

In 2025, Air Liquide's total reported emissions are approximately 58.44 billion kg CO2e. This includes about 14.59 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 19.60 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and 24.25 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions include purchased goods and services (6.60 billion kg CO2e), fuel and energy-related activities (6.60 billion kg CO2e), and use of sold products (6.99 billion kg CO2e).

Looking back, in 2024, the company's total emissions were approximately 58.18 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 14.87 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 20.06 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 23.24 billion kg CO2e. In 2023, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 15.47 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were about 21.50 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were around 22.30 billion kg CO2e.

Air Liquide is committed to achieving carbon neutrality across its entire value chain by 2050. Intermediate milestones include a 33% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions by 2035, compared to a 2020 baseline, with an inflection point expected around 2025 where emissions will begin to decrease in absolute value. The company also aims for a 30% reduction in carbon intensity (kg CO2e per € EBITDA) by 2025, compared to 2015. Additionally, Air Liquide has set a target to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of fossil fuel products sold by 60% by 2035 from a 2021 baseline. These targets are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to well-below 2°C.
