Asm's reported carbon emissions
Asm International N.V., headquartered in the Netherlands, is committed to ambitious climate action, aiming for net-zero emissions across all scopes by 2035. **Emissions Data:** * **2025:** Asm reported total GHG emissions of approximately 1,718,320,000 kg CO2e. This includes Scope 1 emissions of about 3,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 3,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 1,712,815,000 kg CO2e. * **2024:** Total emissions for 2024 were approximately 1,631,120,000 kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 at about 2,500,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 1,300,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of roughly 1,627,314,000 kg CO2e. * **2021:** In 2021, total emissions were approximately 1,647,673,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 1,300,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 8,400,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at roughly 1,637,921,000 kg CO2e. **Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:** Asm has set science-based targets aligned with a 1.5°C warming pathway. Key targets include: * A commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50.4% by 2032, using 2021 as a base year. * A commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by 2035, from the same 2021 baseline. * An overarching net-zero target across all scopes by 2035, allowing for the neutralisation of remaining emissions through high-confidence carbon removal mechanisms. * Scope 3 emissions reduction targets include a near-term goal of a 58.2% reduction per EUR of value added by 2032, and a long-term target of a 97% reduction per EUR of value added by 2035. The company is tracking its progress against these targets, with some indications showing they are on track for near-term goals.
