As COP30—the world’s largest UN climate summit—wraps up in Belém, Brazil, the global community is focused on turning commitments into action. At Experian, climate action is not just about reducing emissions. It’s about creating a fair and inclusive opportunities that benefit everyone. We’re using data and innovation to make that vision a reality, and this global summit is an important platform to share and accelerate this work.
An area we’re particularly excited about is inclusive economic growth, in other words, creating opportunities for everyone to prosper while protecting the planet. For example, we’re seeing great progress in our agribusiness sector, where Experian is helping small producers access affordable credit through responsible, tech-enabled financial inclusion. This is sustainability in action, where climate resilience and social impact go hand in hand.
Experian has also officially launched our Net Zero Transition Plan, detailing how we’re reducing emissions across our operations and supply chain while supporting a fair and inclusive transition. Here’s how we’re tracking:
- Operations: Progressing toward our target to cut Scope 1 and 2 emissions, meaning, those we generate directly such as fuel we burn on-site or in company vehicles, and energy we purchase to power our operations, by 50% by 2030 (a baseline we set in 2019), reaching 84% reduction in the first half of our 2026 fiscal year.
- Supply Chain: Advancing our Scope 3 goal to have 78% of suppliers adopt science-based targets by 2029, with coverage in the first half of our 2026 fiscal year, reaching 38%.
These milestones reflect our award winning commitment to climate leadership and transparency.
COP30 is about implementation, emphasizing collaboration and action. Experian’s participation reinforces our commitment to harness the power of data as a catalyst for climate solutions. From enabling businesses to measure and manage emissions to unlocking financial inclusion for communities most vulnerable to climate impacts, Experian is creating pathways for growth that are future-ready.
