Google Sustainability Commitments
2030
Reach 24/7 carbon-free energy
Google says it aims to run on 24/7 carbon-free energy by 2030. That means matching its electricity use with carbon-free power every hour of every day, rather than averaging it out over a year. This is a major operational target and sits at the centre of its climate strategy. The source material presents it as a company goal, not as a completed outcome.
2030
Cut emissions across value chain
Google says it has a goal of reaching net-zero emissions across its operations and value chain by 2030. Net zero means reducing emissions as much as possible and balancing any remaining emissions with removals or offsets. The material does not show an independent assessment of progress toward this target, but it clearly states the year and the scope of the commitment.
