Europcar Mobility Group Sets 2030 Goals

The Europcar Mobility Group announced it commits to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46.2% and reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 27.5% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.

The Science Based Targets initiative validated the corporate GHG emissions reduction targets submitted by the company.

The approval of these carbon reduction targets reinforces the group's strategy, which aims at actively contributing to the low-carbon transition, by encouraging the shift from vehicle ownership to usage, while empowering its customers in increasingly using green mobility solutions.

Since 2021, the company’s comprehensive carbon reduction plan includes fleet procurement and financing, non-fleet purchasing, car policy and business travels, network of stations, products offering and services. As part of this plan, the group will increase the share of green vehicles (EVs, PHEVs) within its fleet over the years. 

"Mobility, which accounts for nearly 30% of carbon emissions in Europe, is at the heart of the transition issues our world is currently facing,” said Caroline Parot, CEO, Europcar Mobility Group, in a statement. “As a leading mobility service company, we are committed to taking our part of the necessary re-design of mobility ecosystems, making green mobility solutions available, at scale, to our customers, being true to our purpose: “offer attractive alternatives to vehicle ownership, in a responsible and sustainable way.”
