GHG emissions and Carbon intensity
Dell Technologies reported Total CO2e Emissions - Market-Based Scope 1 + Scope 2 for the twelve months ending 31 December 2021 at 204 Kt (-13 /-5.9% y-o-y). Also positively, carbon intensity was down at 2 t (-0.5 /-20% y-o-y).
Dell Technologies's Scope 3 emissions decreased to 15,135 Kt (
The company is committed to reducing Scope 1 + 2 by 50% by 2030 from a base year 2020, which translates into the estimated reduction of -11 Kt per annum over the period of FY2022 - FY2030. This target, however, has not been recognised as science-based (and as aligned with Paris Agreement) by the SBTi.
Also, the company commits to achieving net zero for all Scopes by 2050, which translates into the estimated reduction of -512 Kt per annum over the period of FY2021 - FY2050. This target, however, has not been recognised as science-based (and as aligned with Paris Agreement) by the SBTi.
Dell Technologies also has a science-based goal that, however, does not appear to explicitly target a company-wide reduction in emissions in absolute terms. Dell Technologies commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 50% by FY2031 from an FY2020 base year. Dell Technologies commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services 45% by FY2031 from a FY2020 base year. Dell Technologies commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions from use of sold products 30% within the same timeframe.
