Energy Saving
| Results | After reflecting environmental value※ | Targets | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Global | (Japan) | |||
| CO2emission [t] | 81,541 | 15,485 | 0 | Target: 3% or more |
| Energy consumption (converted into crude oil) [kl] |
43,255 | 7,981 | 0 | Result: 4.96％ |
- CO2 emissions reflecting environmental values are offset by environmental certification (Non-fossil certificates, I-RECs, CO2 credits, etc.).
We achieved target of enrgy saving rate in FY2023 with 4.96% on a global basis, through the energy saving activities, such as introduction of high efficiency equipment, process changes, strengthening management, etc.
Water
| Results | Targets | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Global | (Japan) | (previous year result) | |
| Water consumption [1000m3] | 451 | 127 | 415 |
| Reduction amount of water consumption [1000m3] | -36 | -50 | |
| Reduction rate [%] | -8.6% | -60.6% | |
Regarding water usage, we were unable to achieve our reduction target due to the restoration of domestic production following the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a global increase of 8.6% compared to the previous fiscal year.
Chemical Substances
Panasonic Group makes efforts to reduce released and transferred amount of chemical substances, which cause impact on environment, with the original index, Human and Environment Impact.
| Results | Targets | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Global | (Japan) | (previous year result) | |
| HEI [count] | 12,337 | 1,342 | 11,145 |
We are promoting "HEI" reduction activities optimized for characteristics of each manufacturing process.
- *1 "Removed" is amount of substances converted into other substances through neutralization, decomposition, chemical reaction, etc.
- *2 "Transferred" is amount of substances transferred as wastes, as well as those discharged into the sewage system.
Wastes and Valuables
| Results | Targets | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Global | (Japan) | ||
| Recycled amount [t] | 9,370 | 2,103 | Recycling rate Global: 99.0% or more |
| Final disposal amount [t] | 52 | 24 | |
| Recycling rate *3 [%] | 99.4% | 98.9% | |
- *3 Recycling rate = (Recycled amount) / (Recycled amount + Final disposal amount)
We achieved the target of recycling rate by promoting effective use of resources.
