Technology to power net-zero
Committing to milestones to decrease our carbon footprint, and integrating sustainability across solutions and services, is our plan to bring total net emissions to zero by 2050.
Balancing business and the planet
Hexagon’s green tech investment subsidiary R-evolution pioneers a range of initiatives, from solar monitoring, to carbon capture.
Digital twins to optimise solar energy
Leica RTC360 reality capture laser scanners provide a complete digital twin representation of renewable assets in Archidona, Spain.
Reducing carbon emissions Beneath The Waves
R-evolution and Beneath The Waves are scaling the potential of the world’s biggest nature-based carbon sink: seagrass meadows.
What does net zero mean?
Achieving net zero means eliminating additional greenhouse gas emissions, including CO₂ and methane. CO₂ comes from burning oil, gas, and coal for energy and transport, while methane is generated by agriculture and landfills.
Our CO₂ reduction milestones
Under the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, nearly 200 countries agreed to limit global temperature rises to 1.5C. To achieve this, CO₂ emissions need to fall by nearly half by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2050.
Hexagon is on track for net-zero by 2050 with clear milestones for Scope 1, 2, 3, and avoided emissions by 2025, 2027, 2030, and 2050.
