Infineon Technologies AG has been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and in the Dow Jones Sustainability Europe Index, as announced by S&P Global.

For the 15th consecutive time, the listing honors Infineon’s track record in corporate sustainability. The benchmark index represents the top 10% of the largest 2,500 companies in the S&P Global Broad Market Index based on long-term economic, environmental and social criteria.

“We are proud to be recognized for our sustainability efforts once again,” said Elke Reichert, member of the management board and chief digital and sustainability officer at Infineon. “Infineon’s listing for the 15th consecutive time shows our long-standing commitment to sustainability. As we drive decarbonization and digitalization forward, both as a company and through our products, we believe that responsible business practices are essential to the long-term success of Infineon and create value for our stakeholders.”

Infineon products help save 45 times the emissions arising from their manufacturing. The company aims to improve this ratio with increasingly energy-efficient and intelligent semiconductor solutions. For instance, state-of-the-art power systems enable significantly higher levels of energy efficiency for example in renewable energy production, data centers and electric cars.

At the same time, Infineon is striving to further reduce its own CO2 footprint. Aiming for carbon neutrality by 2030, Infineon has already reduced scope 1 and 2 emissions by two-thirds and is thus well on track to hit the target of 70 percent reduction compared with the base year of 2019 by 2025.
