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.
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.
