Qinetiq

QinetiQ, a UK-based company in the motor vehicles, trailers, and semi-trailers industry, has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon emissions, with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated targets.

In 2026, QinetiQ reported its Scope 1 emissions as 17,020,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions as 5,744,000 kg CO2e. There is no Scope 3 data available for this year.

Looking back, QinetiQ's Scope 1 and 2 emissions have shown a downward trend:

• 2025: Scope 1 emissions were 19,156,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were 6,959,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were 321,308,000 kg CO2e.
• 2024: Scope 1 emissions were 19,331,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were 7,261,000 kg CO2e.
• 2023: Scope 1 emissions were 20,996,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were 11,358,000 kg CO2e.
• 2022: Scope 1 emissions were 23,126,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were 12,222,000 kg CO2e.
• 2021: Scope 1 emissions were 23,710,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were 13,555,000 kg CO2e.
• 2020: Scope 1 emissions were 25,274,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were 10,484,000 kg CO2e.

QinetiQ Group Plc has set ambitious, Science Based Targets (SBTi) validated climate commitments. The company aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by FY2050, using FY2020 as a base year.

Near-term targets (by FY2030 from a FY2020 base year):

• Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50%.
• Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 30%.
• Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 42%.

Long-term targets (by FY2050 from a FY2020 base year):

• Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90%.
• Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90%.
• Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 90%.

These targets are consistent with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C.
