    We have reviewed the scope of our calculations in 2023.
    These emissions are calculated by multiplying an emission factor based on the number of employees.
  • 6　Since capacitors are a component used to store electrical energy, CO2 emissions during use are assumed to be zero.
  • 7　These emissions are calculated by multiplying the CO2 emissions of our equity-method investments by our ownership percentage.
  • 8　Class I designated chemical substances.
