Ribbon Communications’ Emissions Fall by 33%
Ribbon Communications Inc. — a global provider of real-time communications technology and IP optical networking solutions to service providers, enterprises, and critical infrastructure operators — announced a 33% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 CO2e emissions compared to 2018.
The company had set a goal to lower direct carbon emissions by 30% by 2030.
Ribbon achieved its emissions reduction target seven years early, which was facilitated by a deliberate 26% cut in electricity consumption over six years and boosting renewable electricity consumption to 10% of total electricity use.
Details were released in Ribbon's 2023 sustainability report, which highlights the company's continued efforts in achieving its sustainability initiatives.
"Customers are increasingly taking ESG objectives, which include social, compliance and environmental factors, into consideration when making purchasing decisions," said Patrick Macken, CLO and EVP of Ribbon, in a statement. "I'm proud of the work the team has done to make improvements in several areas, many of which also positively impact our operational expenses."
