Jaguar Land Rover has instigated a strategy of inviting its global supply network to commit to sustainability targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and help reach carbon net zero emissions across Jaguar Land Rover’s supply chain, products, and operations by 2039.
Jaguar Land Rover’s Science Based Targets
Jaguar Land Rover has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions across its operations by 46 per cent by 2030. The company will also aim to cut average vehicle emissions across its value chains by 54 per cent, including a 60 per cent reduction throughout the use phase of its vehicles. The goals, which are approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), confirm the company’s pathway to a 1.5°C emissions reduction in line with the Paris Agreement.
Sustainability commitments
The company believes the commitments can only be achieved by working closely with suppliers who share the same vision for change so Jaguar Land Rover has rolled-out a strategy with its global Tier 1 supplier network – products, services and logistics – to align with its 2030 goals, while maintaining the same quality.
Jaguar Land Rover is tasking Tier 1 suppliers to set their decarbonisation pathway, report transparently and demonstrate progress towards their targets. This involves disclosing their carbon reporting and collaborating with their own supply chain to deliver the same reductions. This requirement has been shared with Jaguar Land Rover’s supply network, totalling more than 5,000 companies around the world.
Through its Reimagine strategy, Jaguar Land Rover is undergoing a transformation to deliver sustainability-rich modern luxury vehicles by decarbonising its entire value chain, adopting circular economy principles, and transitioning to fully electric product ranges by the end of the decade.
Jaguar Land Rover has been a a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Motors since 2008.
