“To reach this ambitious target, we are addressing not only the emissions we produce within our own facilities but also those of our entire supply chain, while supporting the industry move to low-carbon mobility technology,” said Magna CEO Swamy Kotagiri.
“By embracing sustainable practices, shifting to renewable energy sources, making our manufacturing processes more efficient and partnering with our customers in the transition to electric vehicles, we want to make a positive impact on the planet and future generations.”
The Canadian parts manufacturer aims to transition to 100% renewable electricity use in its European operations by 2025 and globally by 2030.
Its newly defined strategy includes a commitment to reduce 42% of its scope 1 and 2 emissions, and 25% of its scope 3 emissions, by 2030.
