Our sustainability strategy and targets

We’re doing our part to meet the world’s rapidly changing power needs while making good on our mission to improve the quality of life and the environment.

Eaton's sustainability strategy

Our sustainability strategy defines how we create long‑term value by delivering innovative solutions for our customers, operating responsibly across our value chain, investing in our people and communities, and leading with integrity. 

Sustainability is not a standalone commitment; it is a core driver of our enterprise‑wide strategy to lead for growth, execute  for growth, and invest for growth.

Delight our customers with sustainable innovation
that makes power smarter, cleaner, and more efficient.
Nurture our environment
by lowering emissions, using resources responsibly, and improving efficiency across our operations and value chain.
Partner with people and communities
to foster safe, inclusive workplaces, build future‑ready skills, and strengthen the communities where we operate.
Lead with transparency and integrity
to build trust through transparency, ethical conduct, accountability, and respect for human rights across our value chain.

Science-based targets (SBTi)

We commit to science-based greenhouse gas reduction targets aligned with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the body that assesses climate science. These targets are approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative.
