Carrier's Targets Validated by SBTi
Carrier Global Corporation, a global climate and energy solutions provider, announced its GHG reduction goals including a target to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 were validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
Carrier's specific SBTi-validated targets are the following:
- Lower absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 42% by 2030 from a 2021 base year.
- Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions 25% within the same timeframe.
- Reach net-zero GHG emissions across the value chain by 2050.
"Having our climate and net-zero targets validated by SBTi's comprehensive process confirms that Carrier is doing our part to address climate change," said Hakan Yilmaz, Senior Vice President, Chief Technology & Sustainability Officer of Carrier, in a statement. "The heating and cooling of buildings and homes, together with food waste, contribute an estimated 25% of annual carbon emissions and play a significant role in global warming and climate change. Our industry has both the opportunity and the obligation to be part of the solution. As we continue to distinguish ourselves as a climate and energy solutions leader, we are strategically transforming our portfolio through electrification, integration and resilience and helping our customers achieve their sustainability goals."
Carrier set a goal to help customers avoid more than 1 gigaton of GHG emissions by 2030 and support their decarbonization efforts by offering energy-efficient heat pumps, all-electric refrigeration and building solutions, lower GWP refrigerants and connected technologies in buildings, in homes and across the cold chain.
