DXC Technology, a leading Fortune 500 global technology services provider, announced its commitment to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This reaffirms DXC's effort to make positive and meaningful contributions to reduce the ongoing threat of climate change by addressing its carbon footprint.
The commitment expands on DXC's near-term target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 65% by 2030 against its fiscal year 2019 baseline, which has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). DXC is part of SBTi's network of more than 5,000 global companies that have set emissions reduction targets through the SBTi.
"We are strongly committed to renewable energy utilization, energy efficiency actions and site consolidations to reduce our carbon footprint as well as operating costs without disrupting customer service operations," said Jim Brady, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at DXC Technology. "Additionally, our hybrid work location business model empowers our global teams to work remotely, significantly reducing our facility footprint and supporting our commitment to lowering carbon emissions in the coming years."
Since 2019, DXC has reduced energy consumption by 44%, a result of site consolidations and efficiency efforts, which contributed to Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emission reductions of 58% over the same time frame. Just over a third of energy used in DXC operations is procured from renewable energy sources.
DXC has cut emissions significantly since 2019 and helped customers do the same as part of its commitment to help make a positive impact on sustainability for customers, the community, and its colleagues.
