Climate Commitments and Targets:
PTC has established significant climate commitments, aiming for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by the fiscal year 2050.
Key near-term targets, based on a fiscal year 2022 baseline, include:
- A 50% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by FY2030.
- A 25% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services by FY2030.
Long-term targets include:
- A 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by FY2050.
- A 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by FY2050.
These targets are aligned with a 1.5°C reduction pathway, as established by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). PTC's Scope 1 and Scope 2 targets are considered consistent with this 1.5°C pathway. The company has committed to these targets, which are validated by the SBTi.
