Initiatives to Achieve Carbon Neutrality

We have set a target to reduce our GHG emissions (Scopes 1 and 2) by 30% from the FY2020 level by FY2030. We calculated our non-consolidated GHG emissions in the fiscal year ended March 2025. According to this calculation, we have exceeded our target, achieving a 33% reduction through initiatives such as introducing renewable energy and promoting energy-saving activities. We will set a GHG emissions reduction target for our domestic and overseas consolidated subsidiaries, and our group will strive to achieve carbon neutrality.

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reduction Target

Achieving carbon neutrality by FY2050

Initiatives to Achieve Targets

We will take the following three measures to reduce CO₂ emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 30% from the FY2020 level by FY2030.

1. Improving the efficiency of facilities and equipment and streamlining operating methods and processes
   Steady/front-loaded implementation of existing measures for complying with the Act on Rationalizing Energy Use (reducing energy consumption intensity by at least 1% on annual average)
2. Expanding the use of electricity derived from renewable energy sources
   Shifting to renewable energy-based power, switching from power sales business to the use of the generated power for in-house consumption, and introducing a PPA model
3. Using carbon offsetting methods
   Purchasing J-Credit and renewable energy certificates using the carbon emissions trading system.
