We are shaping the transition to net-zero by reimagining operations, infrastructure and supply chains through innovation to accelerate decarbonisation.
We are living through a climate milestone. The global average temperature has risen to 1.55°C above pre-industrial levels. Every 0.1°C above 1.5°C puts 140 million people at risk of extreme weather. This is a trajectory that must be changed.
We have the power to lead that change through real, measurable portfolio impact. We aim to enable our customers to avoid 1,000 megatons of emissions by 2030 – about 1.5 times Germany’s annual emissions – through three levers: energy efficiency, renewable energy integration and electrification. Our Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) net-zero targets underscore our commitment to help return to a 1.5°C world – find out more about our impact.
We drive the decarbonisation of products, operations and supply chains via dedicated software and hardware, and by enabling renewables integration, energy efficiency and electrification.
We reduce emissions in our operations and supply chain by designing low-carbon, energy-efficient products, produced in optimised production facilities using our portfolio.
Mercedes-Benz has collaborated with Siemens to co-create a Digital Energy Twin that cuts planning time, improves energy efficiency and reduces CO₂ emissions – supporting the car-maker’s ambition to run all fully owned production sites worldwide on 100% renewable energy by 2039.
Siemens technologies are everywhere, enabling everyday life while contributing to the energy transition through three distinct decarbonisation levers: energy efficiency, renewable energy integration and electrification.
We facilitate the transmission and consumption of renewable electricity, by enabling industries and infrastructure to transition seamlessly to clean power sources, such as wind and solar, while enhancing grid flexibility.
For example: On-site renewable generation
Siemens designs and deploys localised low-carbon power systems, including solar PV and hybrid energy, enabling facilities to generate electricity on-site, reduce fossil-fuel reliance and improve energy autonomy.
We provide intelligent automation and real-time data that reduce energy use without compromising productivity, while lowering costs and improving performance.
For example: Digital Twins
Digital twins – for products, buildings or energy systems – predict and optimise performance across their lifecycle while enhancing operational efficiency. At the same time, they cut emissions across Scopes 1–3 and enable energy savings without compromising output or quality.
We provide solutions that decarbonise specific sectors by transitioning from fossil-based to electrified processes, accelerating the transition to electrified systems.
For example: Electrified transport
We advance electrified rail and transport systems, combining digitalisation with clean propulsion to cut emissions across Scopes 1–3 while improving reliability, safety and passenger experience.

Siemens EcoTech highlights the outstanding environmental performance of products. The framework provides a comprehensive set of criteria covering the entire product lifecycle to help customers make transparent, responsible choices that support their sustainability goals.
Our Scope 1, 2 and 3 DEGREE targets are aligned with our overall SBTi net-zero commitment.
Reduce by 90% and compensate residual CO₂e emissions.
Reduce CO₂e emissions by 30% by 2030 and achieve net-zero by 2050.
Achieve >1,000 Mt of CO₂e cumulatively.
*The target boundary includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks
Siemens w/o SHS achieved an overall reduction of 66% for Scope 1 & 2 emissions compared to the base year 2019.
We have achieved an 11% reduction for our Scope 3 emissions since fiscal 2019.
694 million metric tons of CO₂e avoided by customers cumulatively as of 2025, quantifying the positive impact of our offerings sold over their lifetime.
Through digital transformation and collaboration across a growing ecosystem, we are accelerating towards net-zero. Find out more about how we drive decarbonisation.
