Insights into Steel Dynamics's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways

As of 2024, Steel Dynamics has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover only its total carbon footprint, without separate targets for operational (Scope 1 and 2) or value chain (Scope 3) emissions. This limits the ability to track progress across distinct emissions categories.

Does Steel Dynamics have a target to reduce its total carbon footprint?

As of 2024, Steel Dynamics has set a target to reduce its total carbon footprint, specifically those from Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 sources.

Steel Dynamics's most ambitious carbon footprint target is to reduce its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a baseline of 0.94 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Other Product (Unlisted) Produced/Manufactured in 2022, by 87.23% by 2050.

As of 2024, Steel Dynamics is ahead of schedule on its total carbon footprint reduction target, having achieved 10.97% of the planned reduction.
