BorgWarner Enters Partnership to Lower Supply Chain Emissions

BorgWarner entered into a strategic partnership to measure and lower its supply chain carbon footprint in order to meet its goal of reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions 25% by 2030.

The automotive parts manufacturer  entered into a partnership with Manufacture 2030, a decarbonization software provider.

Through the agreement, BorgWarner will leverage M2030's expertise in CO2 reduction and software to encourage its direct material suppliers to increase their emissions reduction efforts. 

M2030 will work directly with BorgWarner's supply base to gather energy usage data related to the manufacturing of products such as electricity and natural gas. The data will be fed into an interactive dashboard where emissions and energy reduction efforts can be tracked. The tool also provides best practice sharing opportunities for pursuing emissions reduction.

BorgWarner will promote collaboration, accountability and engagement across its supply base on emissions reduction by using the tool.

"BorgWarner is greatly looking forward to working together with M2030 and utilizing the decarbonization resources the company offers. Reducing our carbon footprint in our supply base is a vital step in creating a cleaner, more sustainable future for all," said Volker Weng, Vice President of BorgWarner Inc. and President and General Manager, BorgWarner Drivetrain and Battery Systems, Environmental Sustainability Lead, in a statement. "Offering this software to our suppliers enables them to manage, track and reduce their emissions, which in turn enables us to reduce our Scope 3 emissions footprint."

Most recently, the SBTi validated BorgWarner's targets to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 85% and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions 25% by 2030, both from a 2021 base year.
