Carbon Impact

 

A CARBON-FIRST APPROACH

With a critical focus on carbon emissions, we are seeking to address the urgency of the climate crisis with speed and scale in multiple areas of our business.

Our Position

Climate change is one of the world’s most important challenges. We believe addressing carbon emissions is urgent and required to deliver a meaningful benefit for future generations. 

Assessing our carbon emissions using the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, we have identified the lifetime energy-use of the appliances we sell as the greatest primary contributor to our carbon emissions, and therefore the biggest opportunity for reduction.

For more details on our goals, per-appliance metric and strategy please see our Carbon Impact Statement.

Our Goals

From our 2020 baseline, our goals are to reduce our Scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon emissions per-appliance-sold by 50% by 2030, and by 90% by 2050.

Strategy

To address our carbon emissions, we have developed a carbon impact strategy focused on 5 key areas: new products, new company choices, new customer choices, new technologies and new ecosystems.

Opportunity

We will reduce the most carbon emissions by designing and manufacturing appliances that are significantly more energy efficient or part of home ecosystems that are powered by lower-carbon electricity.

Carbon Impact Statement

Our 2024 Carbon Impact Statement reflects our ambition to mitigate the negative impact we have on the climate. It outlines our 2020 baseline position, and defines the goals, strategy, roadmap and actions we believe will deliver impact by reducing carbon emissions, per-appliance-sold, over time.

For transparency, we report progress towards our per-appliance-sold goals and our total carbon emissions on an annual basis.

Carbon Zero Smarthome R&D Institute

In 2022, we established the Fisher & Paykel Carbon Zero SmartHome R&D Institute, an organisation with the mandate to create and invest in research and innovation with the potential to fast-track home energy decarbonisation.

Our R&D Institute considers whole-of-home ecosystems, from appliance design to energy generation, energy storage and management, and home design and construction. It is establishing the processes and capabilities required to explore new science and technologies, and amplify innovation with our global partners.

IN-USE ENERGY CARBON EMISSIONS ESTIMATES

Our In-use Energy Carbon Emissions Estimates help guide purchasing behaviour towards the most energy-efficient appliance solutions within our product portfolio.

Through this initiative, we are seeking to empower consumers to incorporate an appliance’s operational carbon into their pre-purchase decision-making process.
