BHP, an Australian-headquartered company in the Aluminium and aluminium products industry, reported its most recent Scope 1 emissions as approximately 7.4 billion kg CO2e in 2025. In the same year, its Scope 2 market-based emissions were approximately 1.3 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were around 378.2 billion kg CO2e. Key categories within Scope 3 for 2025 included use of sold products (37.7 billion kg CO2e) and processing of sold products (318.2 billion kg CO2e).

Looking back at 2024, BHP's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 8.1 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 2 market-based emissions at about 1.9 billion kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at roughly 377.7 billion kg CO2e. For 2023, Scope 1 emissions were around 8 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions were approximately 1.9 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalled about 370.8 billion kg CO2e.

BHP has set several climate commitments. The company aims for net-zero operational GHG emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 2050, consistent with the Paris Agreement. This long-term goal was first set in 2019 and reaffirmed in subsequent years. Additionally, BHP has a medium-term target to reduce operational GHG emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by at least 30 per cent from 2020 levels by 2030. For Scope 1 emissions specifically, BHP is committed to a 30% reduction from a 2020 baseline by 2030, and similarly for Scope 2 emissions, targeting a 30% reduction from a 2020 baseline by 2030.

The company also pursues a long-term goal of net-zero Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2050. This includes targeting net zero for the operational GHG emissions of its direct suppliers by 2050, subject to the widespread availability of carbon-neutral goods and services. While acknowledging the particular challenge of a net-zero pathway for customers' processing of its products, BHP will continue to collaborate with customers to accelerate the transition to carbon-neutral steelmaking and other downstream processes.

BHP's historical emissions show a Scope 1 total of approximately 20.7 billion kg CO2e and Scope 2 total of around 17.6 billion kg CO2e in 2015. Notably, Scope 3 data was not disclosed for 2015, 2014, 2013, or 2012. All emissions data is disclosed by BHP Group Limited directly.
