Insights into BP's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, BP has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2), but not its value chain emissions (Scope 3). This means its reduction efforts currently focus on direct and purchased energy emissions. a
Does BP have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, BP has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources. a
BP's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 45% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 54,500,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2019. a
As of 2024, BP is ahead of schedule on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 84.44% of the planned reduction. a
BP's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does BP have a target to reduce its total carbon footprint?
As of 2024, BP has set a target to reduce its total carbon footprint, specifically those from Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 sources. a
BP's most ambitious carbon footprint target is to reduce its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a baseline of 0 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Joule (J) of Energy Sold in 2019, by 8% by 2030. a
As of 2024, BP is on track to meet its total carbon footprint reduction target, having achieved 75% of the planned reduction. a
