Ericsson's reported carbon emissions

## Ericsson: Carbon Emissions and Climate Commitments **Emissions Overview:** Ericsson, a leader in the radio, television and communication equipment and apparatus industry headquartered in SE, has reported significant reductions in its greenhouse gas emissions. In 2025, the company's total emissions were approximately 16.8 billion kg CO2e. This figure is comprised of: * **Scope 1:** Approximately 15.3 million kg CO2e, primarily from stationary and mobile combustion. * **Scope 2:** Approximately 25.4 million kg CO2e (market-based). * **Scope 3:** Approximately 16.78 billion kg CO2e, with the largest contributions stemming from the use of sold products and purchased goods and services. In 2024, Ericsson's total emissions were around 18.76 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 17.34 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at about 34.01 million kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 at approximately 18.71 billion kg CO2e. For 2023, total emissions were reported at approximately 31.85 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 27.03 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 42.25 million kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 at around 31.78 billion kg CO2e. **Climate Commitments and Targets:** Ericsson is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions across its value chain by 2040. This ambitious goal is supported by several near-term targets: * **Net Zero Operations by 2030:** The company aims to achieve Net Zero emissions from its own operations by 2030. * **Supply Chain Emission Reduction:** Ericsson has set a target to cut supply chain emissions by 50% by 2030, using a 2016 baseline. * **Science-Based Targets:** Ericsson has validated Science-Based Targets (SBTi) aligned with limiting warming to 1.5°C. These include a commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by FY2040 from a FY2020 base year. Furthermore, Scope 3 emissions are targeted for a 90% reduction by FY2040. Near-term targets involve a 50% reduction in absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by FY2030 from a FY2020 base year. Specifically, Scope 1 and 2 emissions are targeted for a 90% reduction, and Scope 3 emissions for a 50% reduction within the same timeframe. * **Portfolio Emission Reduction:** By 2030, Ericsson also aims to reduce emissions by 50% in its product portfolio. These commitments underscore Ericsson's dedication to sustainable operations and a reduced environmental impact within the radio, television and communication equipment and apparatus sector.
