      We will reduce Scopes 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030

      As the effects of climate change are increasingly evident and the pace of global warming accelerates, we all need to take action. Electricity use in our buildings is the largest source of GHG emissions from our own operations, with smaller quantities coming from fuels and refrigerants used in buildings and in company vehicles. Dell Technologies focuses on efficiency in our electricity use and increasing our use of renewable energy. Our 2030 GHG reduction targets have been accepted by the Science Based Targets initiative as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, the most ambitious goal of the Paris Agreement.

    MTCO2e of Scopes 1 and 2 (market-based) GHG emissions

    In FY21, we reduced our Scopes 1 and 2 (market–based) greenhouse gas emissions by 78,800 metric tons. This represents a 26% decrease from our FY20 baseline. We attribute this decrease to energy efficiency improvements, additional renewable electricity purchases and reduced energy consumption in our operations due to COVID-19.5
