Ericsson

Ericsson, headquartered in Sweden, reported total emissions of approximately 16.8 billion kg CO2e in 2025. This includes Scope 1 emissions of 15.3 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions of 25.4 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of 16.8 billion kg CO2e. The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions were the use of sold products (15.2 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (1.2 billion kg CO2e).

Looking back, Ericsson's total emissions were approximately 18.8 billion kg CO2e in 2024 and 31.9 billion kg CO2e in 2023.

Ericsson has set several ambitious climate commitments:

• Net-Zero Target: Ericsson aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2040.
• Near-Term Targets (by 2030 from a 2020 base year):
  • Reduce absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by 50%.
  • Specifically, reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90.0%.
  • Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 50.0%.
• Long-Term Targets (by 2040 from a 2020 base year):
  • Reduce absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by 90%.

These targets, including the commitment to reduce supply chain emissions by 50% by 2030 from a 2016 baseline, have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Ericsson also had an earlier near-term SBTi commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 35% by 2022 from a 2016 base year, along with a 35% reduction in Scope 3 emissions from business travel and upstream and downstream transportation, and a 35% reduction in the energy consumption of comparable sold products in 2016.
