Scope 3 accounts for ••• of total emissions.
Nordic Semiconductor, a Norwegian company in the Electrical machinery and apparatus sector, reported total carbon emissions of 95,911,000 kg CO2e in 2024. The majority of these emissions, approximately 95,870,000 kg CO2e, were attributed to Scope 3, with 41,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based). The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions were purchased goods and services, accounting for about 84,201,000 kg CO2e. In 2023, the company's total emissions were approximately 73,516,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions at 73,330,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 market-based emissions at 185,000 kg CO2e.
Nordic Semiconductor has established several climate commitments. The company pledges to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 60%, and Scope 3 emission intensity by 60%, by 2030, using a 2019 baseline. The company is on track with its near-term Scope 2 target. Furthermore, Nordic Semiconductor is committed to achieving net-zero emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, with a long-term target to reduce absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050 from a 2019 base year. These targets are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are consistent with reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
