Our Focus

  • Reduce our carbon emissions and make progress with our science-based targets ("SBTs"), as approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative ("SBTi"). These targets are aligned to the more ambitious 1.5ºC scenario set out in the Paris Agreement (2015).
  • Reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions 42% by 2030 from a 2020 base year.
  • Increase annual sourcing of renewable electricity to 100% by 2030 from 0%
    in 2020.
  • Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from 'Purchased Goods and Services', 'Capital Goods' and 'Upstream Transportation and Distribution' 25% by 2030 from a 2020 base year.
  • Our ultimate aim is to achieve Net Zero emissions across our value chain by 2050. We recognise we cannot do this alone, so will collaborate and partner with our suppliers, vendors and customers to work towards a Net Zero future.

Priorities for the Next 12 Months:

  • Detail Halfords Net Zero plan; headline information on how we will transition to a lower carbon economy.
  • Continue to make progress against our science-based targets.
  • Continue to gather primary carbon data from our suppliers, focusing on our top 300 suppliers.
  • Begin to incorporate captured primary data into existing calculations to develop a better understanding of our Scope 3 emissions.
