The EBARA Group aims to achieve net zero GHG emissions by 2050, through reducing GHG emissions within our company and value chain.
GHG: Abbreviation for “greenhouse gases”
55% reduction: Estimated and calculated based on our company's GHG emissions for 2018 and net sales targets for 2030, in accordance with the Japanese government's 2030 goal (46% reduction compared to FY2013).
*1: We revised the description of the second target of our Carbon Neutrality goals in November 2023.
We have incorporated “Avoided emissions" and "Other" to the scope of our value chain CO2e reduction target with reference to the "
Guidance on Avoided Emissions" published by WBCSD
in March 2023. “Other” includes CO2 equivalent greenhouse gases processed by our products, as well as products and services that contribute to carbon neutrality in other ways.
Emissions in accordance with GHG protocols
Through the following measures, the EBARA Group will achieve carbon neutrality in 2050 and contribute to the creation of a sustainable society.
<Scope 1 + 2 (emissions by our own company)> | <Scope3/Avoided Emission/Others (value chain)> | |
Major measures |
1) Expansion of switch to green power
2) Promotion of energy-saving and production innovations in internal business activities 3) Conversion from fossil fuels to non-fossil alternatives (promotion of electrification) 4) Utilization of carbon pricing ・Introduction of internal carbon pricing (ICP) ・Utilization of certificates and credits |
1) Emissions reduction: conversion to energy-saving and resource-saving products, promotion of circular economy businesses by providing energy-saving and low-GHG services and support, collaborations between suppliers and customers, etc. 2) Removal, recovery, etc.: supply of GHG decomposition products, expansion of CCS/CCUS, etc. 3) Introduction of renewable energy: hydrogen, geothermal, solar thermal, etc. 4) Carbon recycling and emission control: hydrogen, chemical recycling, etc. 5) Absorption: forest conservation credits, etc. |
The plan for city gas and fossil fuels currently in use is to promote electrification and increase the proportion of electric power as much as possible. In addition, CO2 emissions are expected to be significantly reduced by actively switching the power being used to green power such as photovoltaic power generation systems, which are planned for installation at major domestic bases such as Fujisawa and Kumamoto.
