Environmental Vision 2050 (ESG)

Fuji Electric is committed to creating a sustainable society through its energy and environmental activities. We announced "Environmental Vision 2050" in 2019 to determine the direction of the company's long-term environmental activities.
We recently revised our "Fiscal 2030 Goals" to realize our "Environmental Vision 2050" in light of social trends aimed at achieving a decarbonized society.

We aim to contribute to a decarbonized society, a recycling-oriented society and a society in harmony with nature by expanding the use of Fuji Electric's innovative clean energy technologies and energy-efficient products.

Targets for 2030

To eliminate the temperature rise to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, we want to achieve the following objectives.

  • Reduce greenhouse gas emissions across the supply chain by more than 46% [from fiscal 2019].
  • Reduce greenhouse gas emissions in production by more than 46% [from fiscal 2019]*1.
  • Contribute to reducing society's CO2 emissions through our products by more than 59 million tonnes a year.

Our Scope1,2 and Scope3 targets (1-8,11) have been approved as 1,5˚C targets by the SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative).

1*Reductionrate for FY2013: 54%
2*The International Climate Change Initiative (SBTi) was co-founded by UNGC (United Nations Global Compact), CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project as a former name), WRI (World Resources Institute) and WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature). It is an organization that assesses and certifies whether the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets established by companies and organizations in each country are "targets based on the science knowledge".
