Kinly has announced that its net-zero targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), becoming the first global systems integrator to have taken this step.
Through its assessment process, SBTi has officially verified that Kinly’s targets, methodologies, and calculations fully capture environmental impact. It also confirms that the business has the necessary infrastructure to support meaningful progress towards net-zero.
This validation reinforces Kinly’s dedication to sustainable operations and specifically authenticates the company’s commitment to:
· Achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2050
· Reducing absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 54.6% by 2033 from a 2023 base year, as well as scope 3 GHG emissions by 61.1% per EUR value added within the same timeframe
· Reducing absolute scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions 90.0% by 2050 from a 2023 base year.
Ken Scaturro, CEO, Kinly (pictured above), said: “Achieving SBTi validation is a significant milestone for the future of our organisation and a demonstration that we are committed to supporting a more sustainable future. It reinforces that our net-zero ambitions are grounded in real science, real accountability, and real impact. We will now apply the same rigorous methodology across Yorktel’s operations and pursue further validation as a unified business. Combining Kinly’s EcoVadis Gold ratings across Benelux, Norway, and the UK with Yorktel’s EcoVadis Committed certification, we’re building on a strong and credible foundation."
