Calculating CO2 Emissions

The ARKRAY Group has been working to minimize the environmental impact stemming from its business activities by quantitatively identifying and analyzing the kinds of resources and energy it uses, along with their impact on the environment.

Notes:
• This graph includes measurement data for eight business locations (major development bases and production sites).
• Our company fiscal year runs from November through October of the following year (e.g. FY2020 = 11/1/2020-10/31/2021)

We started by investigating the energy consumed at each base/site, such as electricity and gas, then calculated which CO2 emissions fell under Scope 1 (direct emissions) and Scope 2 (indirect emissions from energy sources).
In FY2022, we implemented Cool Biz/Warm Biz and reviewed air conditioning settings as part of our ongoing efforts to combat global warming, save energy, and conserve electricity. However, CO2 emissions increased compared to FY2021 due to the recovery of production activities following the end of COVID 19 pandemic.
Our next step will be to calculate the emissions of the entire supply chain, including Scope 3 (other indirect emissions).
