Johnson Controls International scores 55/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places Johnson Controls International joint 34th of 596 companies scored, and 2nd of 9 in Electrical Equipment / Lighting.
Johnson Controls reports comprehensive GHG data with third-party assurance and has beaten SBTi near-term targets ahead of schedule. However, global renewable electricity remains at 56%, Scope 3 coverage excludes most supply chain categories, and nature-related risks lack quantified footprints or TNFD adoption. Trade association alignment with NAM undercuts climate ambition.

Johnson Controls International is a building technology and controls company, Irish-domiciled (registered in Cork) with operational headquarters in the United States, operating globally across HVAC, security, and energy management. Tracing its roots to Johnson Controls (founded 1885 in Milwaukee), it took its current form as an Irish-registered plc via the 2016 merger with Tyco International. It designs and installs systems that reduce end-user emissions rather than manufacturing hardware.
Building controls peer with similar operational decarbonization and trade association alignment tensions.
