Insights into Gentex's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways

As of 2024, Gentex 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.

Does Gentex have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?

As of 2024, Gentex has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.

Gentex's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 70% by 2041, compared to a baseline of 104,321 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2021.

Instead of reducing operational emissions, Gentex has increased them, with 2023 levels exceeding those of the 2021 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
