In 2024, ZTE completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy) and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, ZTE has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.
| Metric (tCO2e) | 2024 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|
Total Scope 1 | 43,102.16a | 45,218.37b |
Total Scope 2 | ||
Unspecified Calculation Method | 393,636.08a | 459,217.88b |
Total Scope 3 | 50,701,237.06a | 64,950,905.51b |
Total Scope 1 Revenue Intensity (tCO2e/$M) | 2.5933a | 2.5864b |

In 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of ZTE amounted to 436,738.24 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).a
Compared to 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of ZTE decreased by 13.42%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.ab
In 2024, the total Scope 1 emissions of ZTE were 43,102.16 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Compared to the previous year (2023), ZTE's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 4.68%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.ab
In 2024, ZTE reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 393,636.08 tCO₂e without specifying the calculation method.a
Compared to the previous year (2023), ZTE's Scope 2 emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) fell by 14.28% in 2024, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its energy consumption.ab
In 2024, ZTE reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.a
In 2024, ZTE reported 50,701,237.06 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2024 disclosure of ZTE includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2023, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2024, ZTE reported total Scope 3 emissions of 50,701,237.06 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Compared to the previous year (2023), ZTE's Scope 3 emissions decreased by 21.94%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower indirect emissions from its value chain.ab
In 2024, ZTE reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 43,102.16 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 16,621 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 2.59 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, ZTE reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 2.59 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 0.87, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, ZTE ranked 18 out of 23 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
ZTE is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2024, ZTE reported a total carbon footprint of 51,137,975.3 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 21.87% decrease compared to 2023, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.ab
The largest contributor to ZTE's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 99.15% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 0.77%.a
