Technology to power net-zero
Hexagon participates in the UN Race to Zero campaign, which calls for immediate action to halve global emissions by 2030 and build a healthier, fairer net-zero world. Our plan to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 rests on two pillars: committing to milestones that reduce our carbon footprint, and integrating sustainability across our solutions and services.
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 reducing greenhouse gas emissions as close to zero as possible, with any remaining residual emissions balanced through credible carbon removals. This requires cutting emissions across operations and the value chain while scaling the technologies and solutions needed for a low-carbon future.
The 2015 Paris Agreement established the global ambition to limit warming to 1.5°C, requiring global emissions to reach net-zero around mid-century.
Our roadmap to net-zero
Hexagon's roadmap translates this global ambition into measurable action. Our science-based targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), confirming they are aligned with the latest climate science and the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C goal.
