As of 2024, Holcim has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.
As of 2024, Holcim has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
Holcim's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 95% by 2050, compared to a baseline of 0.669 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Cementitious Material Produced/Manufactured in 2018.
As of 2024, Holcim is lagging behind on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 8.65% of the planned reduction.
As of 2024, Holcim has set a target to reduce its value chain greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, covering 1 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.
Holcim's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 25.1% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0.71 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Cementitious Material Purchased in 2020.
As of 2024, Holcim is lagging behind on its value chain emissions reduction target, having achieved 2.79% of the planned reduction.
