Bosch's journey to carbon neutrality

Bosch's journey to carbon neutrality

In 2020, Bosch achieved its ambitious goal: to become the first global industrial enterprise to achieve carbon-neutral certification for its operations worldwide. But we’re not stopping there – now we’re working to reduce emissions generated along our supply chains and during the life cycle of our products. It’s all part of our commitment to technology “Invented for life”.

We achieved carbon neutrality by using four levers: increasing energy efficiency, generating our own energy from renewable sources (new clean power), purchasing electricity from renewable sources (green electricity), and – as a last resort – offsetting the remaining CO₂ emissions. In 2022, residual emissions of 0.7 million tons of CO₂ were offset through carbon credits. Scopes 1, 2, 3 are used according to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard.
