Expand the use of renewable energy
Our approach
The popularization and widespread use of renewable energy is becoming increasingly necessary as a way of addressing global warming, ensuring a stable energy supply through diversification of energy sources, and achieving economic growth centered on energy.
The Fujitsu Group has established an environmental vision aimed at achieving a carbon-neutral society. Under this vision, the Group has identified the thorough promotion of energy conservation and the active introduction of renewable energy as key initiatives. To achieve this vision, we have set quantitative targets under the environmental action plan, and are actively promoting the introduction and installation of solar power generation equipment at our business sites, as well as the purchase, use, and expansion of green power (electric power generated through 100% renewable energy).
FY2025 performance
| Targets under the Fujitsu Group environmental action plan (Stage XI) | FY2025 result |
|---|---|
| Expand the rate of renewable energy usage to more than 50 % in 2025 (*1) | 67.5% (*2) |
- (*1) Target organizations : Business sites owned by Fujitsu and the Fujitsu Group. Includes all data centers
- (*2) Calculation standards : Refer to the environmental performance data calculation standards for details
Environmental action plan (Stage XI) initiatives
With the aim of achieving the Fujitsu Group’s medium-term environmental goal of “using 100% renewable energy in FY 2030,” we set a target under the Fujitsu Group environmental action plan (Stage XI) to expand our use of renewable energy to more than 50% by 2025. As a result, in FY2025, we achieved a 100% renewable energy usage rate across all data center operations through initiatives such as the purchase of green power and electricity generation using solar panels. Consequently, the Fujitsu Group’s overall renewable energy usage rate increased to 67.5%.
We will continue to work toward the implementation of renewable energy in both our domestic and overseas business offices, in order to further our purchase and usage of renewable energy.
Renewable energy procurement principle
Mandatory requirement
- Renewable energy that can be reported through RE 100 activities
- Power sources are Solar, Wind-power, Geothermal, Biogas and Small-hydro etc.
- Environmental value (renewable attribute) can be pursued and verified
- No double counting of environmental value Ex.) Amortization of environmental value of renewable energy, to be executed through the system of public agency
Recommended requirement
- The electric power, in which power consumption to be combined with environmental value
- The electric power, in which grid power and environmental value certification to be 1 set (The renewable energy to be generated in the same grid)
- Power balancing to be managed. In time of emergence, minimum gap of power consumption and environmental value to be generated (within 1 year etc.)
- To select the renewable energy, by which we can contribute to local society
- For example, by selecting the renewable energy in the same area as grid consumption, we can make “Local generation for local consumption” possible.
- Or to support the power generation company which makes effort to enlarge renewable energy power
- To procure the power from relatively new sites, in order to contribute the enlargement of renewable energy (Additionality)
- To promote new project conjuncture, then to procure the power from it, we can contribute to increase the capacity of renewable energy of whole society
- To procure from the power generation site which was developed and constructed with the agreement of local society
- To avoid making significant impact to the environment or society in which the power generation site is located
