Siemens scores 35/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places Siemens joint 466th of 809 companies scored, and joint 5th of 10 in Electrical Equipment / Lighting.
Siemens has delivered genuine operational emissions cuts (60% since 2019) and secured SBTi validation, but faces a critical credibility gap: it funded the Carmichael coal mine in 2020 despite global activist pressure, and holds undisclosed trade association memberships misaligned with climate. Scope 3 remains opaque and portfolio-dependent.
