What is Nespresso’s current Net Zero Status? And how are you tracking progress?

Our GHG emissions reduction targets were approved by the SBTi in 2024. This included full validation of our targets across scopes 1, 2, and 3, including for Forestry, Land and Agriculture (FLAG), positioning Nespresso as a leader in ambitious climate action, with a decarbonization pathway aligned to the Paris Agreement and its goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

 

We continue to reduce the primary emission factor of AAA green coffee, with estimates showing a decline in 2024 from 5.0 to 4.3 kg CO2 e/kg GC. This progress is driven by reductions, removals, and a commitment to zero deforestation. To support this transition, we are equipping AAA farmers with regenerative agricultural practices through the deployment of agronomic packages in Brazil, Costa Rica and Colombia.

 

We have launched a Carbon Accounting Tool (CAT) to help identify the source of our impact, track progress and develop forward-looking scenarios. We have also launched a network of over 15 Climate Champions  across HQ departments to accelerate our path to net zero and close the identified gap to Nespresso’s emission reduction targets by 2030. All markets have also set a target of 100% renewable electricity for their boutiques and offices, further reinforcing our commitment to sustainability.
