Agilent's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Agilent Technologies reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 20460000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 48159000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 88599000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This represents a total of about 68619000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined. Notably, Scope 3 emissions included significant contributions from business travel (about 10360000 kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 78239000 kg CO2e). Agilent has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030, using 2019 as the base year. Additionally, the company targets a 30% reduction in absolute Scope 3 emissions from categories such as purchased goods and services, capital goods, and business travel within the same timeframe. By 2050, Agilent aims for a remarkable 95% reduction across all scopes (1, 2, and 3). These targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), aligning with global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. Agilent's commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 underscores its dedication to sustainability and climate action within the healthcare equipment and supplies sector.
