Johnson Controls

Johnson Controls, headquartered in Ireland and manufacturing air-conditioning, warm air heating, and refrigeration equipment, has committed to significant climate action.

In 2024, Johnson Controls' total emissions were approximately 218.7 billion kg CO2e. This included about 377 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, approximately 152 million kg CO2e (market-based) from Scope 2 emissions, and roughly 218.1 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions in 2024 included approximately 206.2 billion kg CO2e from the use of sold products and around 7.5 billion kg CO2e from the end-of-life treatment of sold products.

Looking back, Johnson Controls' total emissions in 2023 were about 215.9 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 363 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at about 201.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at roughly 215.4 billion kg CO2e. In 2022, total emissions were around 230.9 billion kg CO2e, comprising approximately 370.4 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, about 213.3 million kg CO2e (market-based) for Scope 2, and roughly 230.3 billion kg CO2e for Scope 3.

Johnson Controls has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims for net-zero carbon emissions across all scopes by 2040, aligning with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Race to Zero and Business Ambition for 1.5°C criteria.

Near-term targets include reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 55% by 2030 from a 2017 base year, as approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additionally, the company commits to reducing Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 16% by 2030 from a 2017 base year. Johnson Controls also has a near-term target to reduce greenhouse gas intensity by 25% by 2025 from a 2017 baseline for Scope 1 and Scope 2. The company aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025.

Johnson Controls is a signatory of The Climate Pledge, further demonstrating its commitment to climate action.
