First written in FY2019. 4 of 6 entries say "Raised", first in FY2022. Latest entry: FY2026.
- FY2026RaisedAnnual report
「• Achieve a 58% renewable-energy adoption rate by 2030, with the target set in line with the SBT Net-Zero target. • Promote decarbonization toward achieving the SBT target of reducing each of Scope 1 and 2 and Scope 3 emissions by at least 63.6% from fiscal 2024 levels by fiscal 2034.」
Specified the climate-change targets as a 58% renewable-energy adoption rate by 2030 and reductions of at least 63.6% in each of Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by fiscal 2034. Also maintained the policy of reducing emissions by at least 90% and neutralizing residual emissions by fiscal 2040. - FY2025RaisedAnnual report
「In April 2024, we obtained certification from the SBT initiative for our Net-Zero target and raised the target to reducing each of Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions by at least 50% from fiscal 2020 levels by fiscal 2030.」
Raised the climate target, based on SBT Net-Zero certification, to reducing each of Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by at least 50% by fiscal 2030. Also indicated a policy of reducing emissions by at least 90% and neutralizing residual emissions by fiscal 2040. - FY2023RaisedAnnual report
「In September 2022, we joined The Climate Pledge (TCP), an initiative that aims to achieve zero CO2 emissions across the entire supply chain by 2040. We strengthened our targets by declaring carbon neutrality in 2040, 10 years earlier than under the previous plan, and revised the 2025 fiscal-year KPI for materiality to a 25.0% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions from fiscal 2020 levels.」
Moved the carbon-neutrality target forward by 10 years, from 2050 to 2040, and expanded its scope to the entire supply chain. - FY2022RaisedAnnual report
「In 2021, in addition to the target of effectively zero Scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions, we set a target of achieving effectively zero CO2 emissions across the entire supply chain, including Scope 3, by 2050. We also set targets of reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 55% and Scope 3 Category 1, 3 and 11 emissions by 33% by 2030, in each case from fiscal 2017 levels. We joined RE100.」
Expanded the effective net-zero emissions target from Scope 1 and 2 to the entire supply chain, including Scope 3, and specified a 55% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, a 33% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2030 and membership in RE100. - FY2021-Q3AdvancedAnnual report
「We commercialized the world's first air-conditioning equipment using a new refrigerant that does not contain fluorocarbons and has a lower impact on global warming, and demonstrated that the electricity consumed for air conditioning to cool the large amount of heat generated in data centers can be halved compared with conventional cooling systems.」
Commercialized air-conditioning equipment using a new refrigerant with a lower global-warming impact and demonstrated that data-center air-conditioning power consumption could be halved compared with conventional systems. - FY2019First statedAnnual report
「The NEC Group has set a target of achieving effectively zero CO₂ emissions from its own business activities (Scope 1 and 2*) by 2050. The NEC Group has established greenhouse-gas emissions reduction targets for 2030, and the international environmental organization Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative has certified these targets as being based on scientific evidence at a level consistent with achieving the Paris Agreement's 2°C target.」
Disclosed the target of effectively zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050, the 2030 reduction targets and SBT certification, as well as implementation measures including supplier surveys and awards, energy conservation and renewable-energy adoption.
