Trina Solar is committed to significant emissions reductions. The company aims to reduce its Scope 1 emissions by 50% from a 2020 baseline by 2030. Concurrently, it targets a 50% reduction in Scope 2 emissions from the same 2020 baseline by 2030. Furthermore, Trina Solar has committed to reducing its combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. Looking further ahead, the company has a long-term goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
