Faurecia, one of the world’s leading automotive technology companies, announced that it has selected Schneider Electric as a preferred partner to support the Group in its commitment to reach CO 2 neutrality for scopes 1 and 2 by 2025. Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, will accompany Faurecia in this first stage of its CO 2 Neutral mission which involves decarbonizing its operations.

A significant part of greenhouse gas emissions in Faurecia’s operations are direct emissions from controlled facilities and indirect emissions from energy procured (scopes 1 and 2 respectively). The first stage of the program will include both purchasing energy produced with low-carbon fuels or from renewable sources, and reducing energy used by adopting innovative digital solutions for efficiency and heat recovery in all of Faurecia’s 300 locations around the world.

In addition to this first milestone of CO2 neutrality in scopes 1 and 2 in 2025, the Group is also targeting CO 2 neutrality in controlled emissions in 2030 (scopes 1, 2 and most of scope 3, excluding emissions of vehicles equipped with Faurecia parts) and CO 2 full neutrality in all scopes by 2050.
