Compared to 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Arrow Electronics decreased by 4.61%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2025, the total Scope 1 emissions of Arrow Electronics were 6,155 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2021, Arrow Electronics's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 52.86%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Arrow Electronics's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 23.04%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 18,367 tCO₂e using the market-based method and 25,504 tCO₂e using the location-based method.a
Since 2021, Arrow Electronics's Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Location-Based) have decreased by 16.42%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 2 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Arrow Electronics's Scope 2 emissions (Location-Based) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Arrow Electronics's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported 16,210,563 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2025 disclosure of Arrow Electronics includes a breakdown across 9 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2024, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported total Scope 3 emissions of 16,210,563 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 75.27% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 24.73% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Compared to the previous year (2024), Arrow Electronics's Scope 3 emissions increased by 75.11%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported emissions for 9 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
This partial disclosure allows for some insight into the company's indirect impacts.
In 2025, the largest contributors to Arrow Electronics's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 6,155 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 30,852 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 0.2 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 0.2 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 0.37, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics ranked 10 out of 24 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Arrow Electronics is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2025, Arrow Electronics reported a total carbon footprint of 16,242,222 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 74.83% increase compared to 2024, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Arrow Electronics's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 99.81% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 0.16%.a
