University Of Exeter

The University of Exeter reported approximately 86.9 million kg CO2e in total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions for 2025. This includes about 6.3 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, approximately 3.7 million kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2 emissions, and around 77.0 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. For 2024, their total emissions were about 90.4 million kg CO2e. In 2023, the University's total emissions were approximately 96.2 million kg CO2e.

The University of Exeter is committed to achieving net-zero emissions. They aim to be carbon neutral (net zero) for Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2040, with an interim target to reduce these emissions by 75% by 2030, using a 2018/2019 baseline. Furthermore, they have a near-term target to reduce emissions across all Scope 1, 2, and 3 categories by 26% by 2030, excluding international student out-of-term travel. Their long-term commitment involves an absolute emissions reduction across all scopes, including international student out-of-term travel, by at least 90% by 2050, utilising insetting for the remaining balance to reach net-zero.
