Scope 1: Direct GHG emissions from use of fuel and gas we owned or controlled. Calculation method: Emissions = Σ (fuel consumed × CO₂ emission factor).
Emission factor based on Japan’s Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures

Scope 1: Non-energy-derived CO₂ and greenhouse gases other than CO₂. Calculation method: Emissions = Σ (consumption × emission per unit consumption – amount recovered and properly treated) × global warming factor
Global warming factor is based on Japan’s Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures.
From fiscal year 2022, the value for the amount recovered and properly treated have been reviewed to match actual conditions.

Scope 2:Indirect GHG emissions from use of electricity we purchased Calculation method: Emissions = Σ (purchased electricity × CO₂ emission factor). Adjusted emission factors for the electrical power providers concerned based on Japan’s Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures were used as the emission factor for Japan
Emission factors based on values from the Emissions Factors 2019 edition published by the International Energy Agency (IEA) were used as the emission factor for overseas electricity consumption

Figure after Non-Fossil Certificate Equivalent Amount Deduction. Scope 2 emissions prior to Non-Fossil Certificate Equivalent Amount Deduction is 6kt-CO₂, Non-Fossil Certificate Equivalent Amount Deduction is 6kt-CO₂.

Emissions from corporate value chains (excluding scope 1 and 2 emissions), such as product transportation, employee business travel and major outsourced production processes. The entire scope is divided into 15 categories, of which calculations were made for categories 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11 and 12. Revised past figures. Calculations for categories 8, 10, 13, 14 and 15 were not made as they are either not included in our activities or have already been included in other categories.
