ArcelorMittal

"ArcelorMittal's net zero target is to achieve group-wide carbon emissions neutrality by 2050. Net Zero Tracker
An interim target is set to reduce emissions by 25% relative to 2021 levels by 2030. Net Zero Tracker
The company's environmental policy includes a roadmap to net-zero, which outlines five key levers: steelmaking transformation, energy transformation, increased use of scrap, sourcing clean electricity, and offsetting residual emissions. Net Zero Tracker
Interestingly, ArcelorMittal plans to offset less than 5% of 2018's scope 1 and scope 2 emissions with 'high-additionality' credits to achieve the 2050 target. 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.

ArcelorMittal belongs to the sector Materials.

Planning to use external offset credits Yes
Separate targets for emission reductions and removals No
Conditions on use of offset credits
  • No conditions specified
Plans for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) Yes (CCS-based removals e.g. BECCS, DACCS)

Additional notes: Offsets: 'E. Offsetting residual emissions' (p27 CCS-based: 'Carbon capture, utilisation and storage infrastructure will take time to be built at scale. While Europe is expected to take the lead, CCUS infrastructure has the potential to expand quickly in the US and Canada – providing some potential upside to our assumptions' (p27) "Plans to offset less than 5% of 2018 s1 and s2 emissions with 'high-additionality' credits, to achieve 2050 target." --> https://newclimate.org/sites/default/files/2023-02/NewClimate_CorporateClimateResponsibilityMonitor2023_Feb23.pdf
