To improve trust from our stakeholders, the Group has received third-party assurances from Japan Audit and Certification Organization for Environment and Quality (JACO) for Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 categories 1 and 11, which have the highest proportion of GHG emissions, and, newly from this year, for Scope 3 category 4. These amounts of target energy consumption account for 98.8% of the total emissions of the entire Group. Through these efforts, we intend to further improve the reliability of sustainability reporting within the Group.
