Activities towards Global Responsible Business (GRB) Environmental Goals
Introduction
Climate change is a global issue that impacts the sustainability of society, and it is closely related to water and resource recycling issues. Engaging in global environmental conservation is essential for achieving our Purpose. The Fujitsu Group does its utmost to reduce environmental impact and minimize risks throughout the value chain, and we contribute to the realization of a sustainable society by solving environmental issues together with our customers.
To Reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions in Accordance With 1.5℃ Target
Initiatives for the Net-zero Target
With FY2020 as a base year, the Fujitsu Group is aiming to achieve `net-zero ready` for our business activities (Scope 1,2) GHG emissions by FY2030, and net-zero GHG emissions including the entire supply chain (Scope 3) by FY2040. Toward these targets, we are examining decarbonization of energy and utilization of carbon credits for Scope 1, and proactively working on procurement and expanded utilization of renewable energy both inside and outside Japan, in order to reach our target of RE100 by FY2030, for Scope 2. Domestically, we are planning to have 100% of the electricity used at all data centers come from renewable energy by FY2025. In addition, for Scope 3, we are expanding transparency of CO₂ emissions for the entire supply chain, and moving forward with support for strategies and measures toward carbon neutrality in collaboration with numerous related partners. The Fujitsu Group aims to demonstrate leadership in building a sustainable future, and leave a positive impact on society as a whole.
Initiatives for Achieving Goals
The Fujitsu Group’s emissions (Scope 1, 2) for FY2024 saw a 45% reduction compared to the base year. The deployment rate of renewable energy for the entire Group reached over 47%. Scope 3 emissions were also reduced 43% due to improvement in products’ energy-saving efficiency, demonstrating steady reduction in emissions. One of the main domestic data centers now uses 100% renewable energy. At Fujitsu Australia, wind power PPA and electric vehicle (EV) deployment is advancing, with 5 EVs deployed and 3 charging stations installed, contributing to reductions in emissions. Additionally, in collaboration with the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) and aggregators, we operate emergency generators at data centers when energy demand is at a peak, thereby implementing a “demand-response (DR) program” which restricts operation of large-scale fossil fuel power plants, and contributing to stabilization of electric power infrastructure. In these ways, the Fujitsu Group bears a sense of responsibility when dealing with global issues, and proactively contributes to the achievement of a sustainable society.
