SCIENCE-BASED CARBON TARGET

In 2023, we have launched a science-based Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction target for Garrett. We are committed to reduce our GHG emissions by 46.2% by 2030, with a 2019 baseline. The scope for the target our own operations (e.g. scope 1 and scope 2).

A science-based target means that it aligns to the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C compared to pre-industrial levels. Our approach to this reduction is to focus on energy management and efficiency as well as on-site renewable energy (e.g. solar).

We reduced our CO2 emissions by 9% (scope 1+2) in 2022.
