NCR Commits to 2050 Goals

NCR Corporation, an enterprise technology provider, committed to net zero GHG emissions by 2050.

“Last year, NCR committed to becoming an ESG leader among our peer technology companies. We have been working hard to improve key areas that our employees, customers, investors and suppliers care about most,” said Michael D. Hayford, Chief Executive Officer, NCR in a statement. “We are sharing multiple ESG reports and commitments for the first time to really stand behind what we said we were going to do and will continue to be transparent as we work to achieve our goals.”

The path to net zero GHG emissions by 2050 includes transitioning the NCR fleet to electric vehicles.

The company developed a comprehensive GHG inventory management plan that focuses on Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions from its global facility and service operations. It’s based on the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard developed by the World Resources Institute and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.

In 2022, the company disclosed its Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions data, which has been measured and calculated in alignment with the GHG Protocol Standard. 

The baseline emissions for the past three years are as follows:

For Scope 1, the metric tons of C02e was 119,099 in 2019, 119,989 in 2020 and 128,016 in 2021.

For Scope 2, the metric tons of C02e was 14,458 in 2019, 10,172 in 20220 and 10,7171 in 2021.
