Electricite De France

In 2024, Electricité de France (EDF) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 90.7 million tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 16.8 million tonnes CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at around 0.65 million tonnes CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 73.3 million tonnes CO2e. This represents a slight decrease from 2023, where total emissions were about 91.8 million tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 18.9 million tonnes CO2e, Scope 2 at about 0.45 million tonnes CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 72.5 million tonnes CO2e. EDF has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for a significant reduction in emissions across various scopes. The company targets a 60% reduction in Scope 1 emissions by 2025 compared to 2017 levels, which translates to a reduction from 20 million tonnes CO2e to 8 million tonnes CO2e. By 2030, EDF aims for a 70% reduction in Scope 1 emissions, and by 2035, an 80% reduction is planned. Additionally, EDF has committed to achieving net zero emissions across all scopes by 2050. In 2023, EDF achieved a 21% reduction in Scope 1 emissions compared to the previous year, demonstrating progress towards its targets. The company is also aligned with the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), committing to a 50% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 from a 2017 baseline, and a 28% reduction in Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 2030 from a 2019 baseline. Overall, EDF's climate strategy reflects a robust commitment to reducing carbon emissions and transitioning towards a more sustainable energy future.
