Advanced Micro Devices

"The net zero target of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is a 50 percent reduction in GHG emissions from its operations (scope 1 and 2) by 2030, using 2020 as the base year. Net Zero Tracker
This target does not cover historical emissions and AMD has not specified what gases are covered by its target. Net Zero Tracker
An interesting fact about AMD's environmental policy is that they have set 2020-2025 goals to increase product energy efficiency, encourage manufacturing suppliers to adopt renewable energy, and to set their own public GHG goal. Net Zero Tracker

Sector Benchmark

Note: Latest GHG and revenue data (based on tradingview.com) are used to calculate GHG emissions intensity by sector. The color scale of each bubble depends on the GHG intensity (GHG emissions per 1 million USD revenue). Sectors follow the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) that organize companies based on their primary business activities. The 11 sectors are : Information Technology, Health Care, Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, Industrials, Consumer Staples, Energy, Utilities, Real Estate, and Materials.

Advanced Micro Devices belongs to the sector Information Technology.

Science-based Targets (SBTI)

Date Published / Updated :01/06/2016

Near-term Long-Term Net Zero Standard
Targets Set : Well-below 2°C by 2020 No target No

Multinational semiconductor company AMD commits to reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions 20% by 2020 from a 2014 base-year. AMD also commits to improve the compute performance per watt of energy consumed by their mobile APU processors by 2500% by 2020 from a 2014 base-year. AMD also has a goal for suppliers' wafer foundry scope 1 emissions to stay 30% below the Semiconductor Industry Association average, and for wafer foundry electricity use to stay 40% below the industry average, using a normalized manufacturing index
