Intel supplier requirements
What Intel requires
Intel requires suppliers to participate in its environmental program, including completing annual CDP questionnaires on climate change and water use. Suppliers must set and publicly report GHG reduction targets, work towards 100% renewable energy for Intel-related operations by 2030, and achieve net-zero Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 2050. Additionally, suppliers in mainland China must register with the Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs (IPE) and address compliance issues. Intel uses a Supplier Report Card to track progress in climate, water, and energy areas.
For Intel supplier expectations, view Intel's Supplier Compliance Handbook.
