INTEL's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, INTEL reported total carbon emissions of approximately 23,095,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 845,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 48,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 23,095,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This represents a significant reduction from 2022, where total emissions were about 22,791,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions at approximately 1,538,500,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, INTEL's emissions were even higher, totalling around 28,863,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 alone, with combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions of about 3,274,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, which decreased from approximately 2,181,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to 893,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023. Despite these reductions, INTEL has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future improvement in their climate strategy. The company continues to focus on reducing emissions across its operations, particularly in Scope 3, which remains the largest contributor to its overall carbon footprint.
