Amount of Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions
In fiscal year 2017, the Nitto Group started to calculate the amount of Scope 3 greenhouse gas emitted in its value chain. The results for fiscal year 2022 are as follows:
| Category |
Amount of CO2 emitted (t-CO2) |
Calculation method |
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Category 1 | Products and services purchased |
108,682 | Calculated by multiplying the purchase prices of the top 70% of products and services purchased by business sites by the CO2 unit value stipulated in the guidelines. |
| 2 | Category 2 | Capital goods | 21,133 | Calculated by multiplying the amount of capital goods (buildings, structures, machinery, and equipment) by the CO2 unit value stipulated in the guidelines. |
| 3 | Category 4 | Transportation and delivery (upstream) | 3,232 | CO2 emissions volume indicated on the periodic report of specified consignors in the Act on the Rational Use of Energy |
| 4 | Category 5 | Waste | 662 | Calculated by multiplying the amount of each type of waste by the CO2 unit value stipulated in the guidelines. |
| 5 | Category 6 | Business trips | 342 | Calculated by multiplying the number of employees by the CO2 unit value stipulated in the guidelines. |
| 6 | Category 7 | Commuting to/from work | 291 | Calculated by multiplying the amount of transportation expenses paid by the CO2 unit value stipulated in the guidelines. |
- *The amount of CO2 emitted in each category was calculated with reference to the Ministry of the Environment's Green Value Chain Platform and other guidelines.
