Vision/PolicyEnvironmental Targets
The Nippon Chemi-Con Group sets environmental targets based on "Nippon Chemi-Con's Environmental Policy" considering action plans by electrical and electronics industries.
In light of the "Carbon Neutrality Action Plan" by electrical and electronics industries, we have set our improvement target for energy consumption per unit at an annual average of 1% or higher towards FY2030.
Long-term target
In light of the common goal set by electrical and electronics industries, we have set our improvement target for energy consumption per unit at an annual average of 1% or higher towards FY2050.
Carbon Neutral
Application range
Nippon Chemi-Con Group*
Medium-term target
To realize carbon neutrality by 2050, we will pursue to reduce CO2 emissions from our production by 46% at manufacturing sites in Japan and by an average of 29% at our overseas manufacturing sites (excluding Samyoung Electronics and Qingdao Samyoung Electronics) in FY2030, compared with FY2013.
Long-term target
To realize carbon neutrality by 2050, we will engage in activities to reduce CO2 emissions.
Water Resources （Water Risks）
Application range
Nippon Chemi-Con Group*
Medium-term target
Considering water risks, we aim to improve water usage per unit by an annual average of 1% or higher until FY2030.
Long-term target
Considering water risks, we aim to improve water usage per unit by an annual average of 1% or higher towards FY2050.
Waste Management
Application range
Nippon Chemi-Con Group (manufacturing bases in Japan)
Medium-term target
For measures on final disposals of industrial waste (including plastic waste) based on the 3R, we aim to establish a final disposal rate of 1.0% or lower until FY2030 and improve further.
Long-term target
For measures on final disposals of industrial waste (including plastic waste) based on the 3R promoted by electrical and electronics industries, we aim to establish a final disposal rate of 0.5% or lower until FY2050 and improve further.
Resource Conservation
Application range
Nippon Chemi-Con Group (manufacturing bases in Japan)
Medium-term target
We aim to effectively use resources and achieve a recycling rate of 99.0% or higher towards FY2030.
Long-term target
We aim to establish a recycling rate of 99.5% or higher towards FY2050 and improve further by effectively using resources.
