「As a result, for the fiscal year ended June 2026, we achieved the target of reducing the intensity of CO2 emissions from major products in fiscal 2025 to 30% relative to the CO2 emissions in fiscal 2018.」
The target of reducing CO2 emissions intensity for major products by 30% by the end of fiscal 2025 was achieved, with emissions intensity for the fiscal year ended June 2026 down 34.0% from the base year. Meanwhile, total emissions were up 58.9% from the base year, and the 2030 and 2050 targets remain in place. - FY2025WorsenedAnnual report
「Fiscal year ended June 2025 Total emissions Scope 1 + Scope 2 4,014 Change from base year +38.3% Emissions intensity (Note 1) Scope 1 + Scope 2 1.11 Change from base year △18.9%」
Preliminary figures for the fiscal year ended June 2025 showed total emissions up 38.3% from the base year, while the reduction in emissions intensity was limited to 18.9%. This represented a deterioration from the 30.6% reduction in the previous fiscal year against the former 30% target for fiscal 2025. - FY2024AdvancedAnnual report
「Through these activities, toward net-zero CO2 emissions from business activities (Scope 1 and Scope 2) in 2050, we aim to reduce emissions intensity for major products by 30% in fiscal 2025 and emissions intensity for major products and total emissions by 50% in 2030, relative to CO2 emissions in fiscal 2018.」
In the fiscal year ended June 2024, CO2 emissions intensity was down 31.7% from the base year, exceeding the 30% reduction target for fiscal 2025. Total emissions, however, were up 8.4% from the base year, and achievement of the 2030 target was not reported. - FY2023First statedAnnual report
「Toward net-zero CO2 emissions from business activities (Scope 1 and Scope 2) in 2050, we aim to reduce emissions intensity for major products by 30% in fiscal 2025 and emissions intensity for major products and total emissions by 50% in 2030, relative to CO2 emissions in fiscal 2018.」
The company cites green energy, improvements to processing methods, waste recycling and new-material development as reduction measures.
