Safran

Safran's climate commitments include a Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved goal to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50.4% by 2030, from a 2018 base year. The company also aims to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 42.5% per available seat kilometre by 2035, from a 2018 base year. These targets are consistent with reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C.

In 2024, Safran reported total emissions of approximately 70.9 billion kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of approximately 175.7 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 146.3 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were approximately 70.6 billion kg CO2e, with "use of sold products" being the largest contributor at approximately 63.4 billion kg CO2e.

Looking back, in 2023, Safran's total emissions were approximately 68.5 billion kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of approximately 168.7 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 206.4 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions in 2023 were approximately 68.1 billion kg CO2e.

Further back in 2018, the baseline year for some of its targets, Safran's total emissions were approximately 119.9 billion kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 219.8 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 358.9 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions in 2018 were approximately 119.4 billion kg CO2e.

Safran has also committed to carbon neutrality for the entire air transport sector by 2050, through the Air Transport Action Group (ATAG). Additionally, the company has stated an aim to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 30% by 2025 and 50.4% by 2030, compared to 2018 levels. Previous efforts include the development of the LEAP engine, which reduces CO2 emissions by 15% compared to its predecessor.
