This means we have achieved our initial target, which was to reduce emis-sions by more than 50% by 2030, ahead of schedule. We introduced the previous medium-term business plan amid a challenging operating environment, with factors such as soaring fuel prices putting pressure on profits. In response, we prioritized the introduction of new energy-efficient facili-ties and the upgrading of high-efficiency equipment, which have saved significant amounts of energy. We also actively procured green power and utilized J-Credits. As a result, we were able to achieve our emissions reduction goals while controlling investment costs. Based on our achievements in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the LINTEC Group set new reduction targets for CO2 emissions. We now aim to reduce emissions by 67% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, compared with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, and by 75% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2030. While the target numbers are extremely ambitious and challenging, the LINTEC Group is committed to achieving carbon neutral-ity at an early stage through careful planning and execution. Specifically, we plan to increase the number of sites where cogeneration systems, which generate electricity and heat from gas energy, are installed from the current four sites to a total of six. Additionally, we will streamline our production facilities through integration and consolidation, explore the adoption of new energy sources such as hydrogen, and implement AI-operated energy storage systems. These ini-tiatives cover a wide range of themes in our pursuit of carbon neutrality.In addition to lowering CO2 emissions, the LINTEC Group is actively promoting initiatives to decrease its use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), reduce waste, and promote the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle). By taking the lead in addressing social issues, we aim to enhance corporate value and contribute to a sustainable society.Cogeneration systemNew initiatives to be implemented to achieve new targets:1 Increase number of sites where cogeneration systems are installedconsumptioncontrol of power storage systemsproduction facilitiesutilization of waste heat recovery, and fuel conversionetc. 42The LINTEC Group is committed to corporate activities that are in harmony with the environment, in line with the slogan “one earth, striving for a comfortable environment with a broad perspective.” We recognize environmen-tally conscious management to be our inherent responsibility as a manufacturer. In this section, we introduce initiatives with a particular emphasis on addressing the significant challenge of reducing CO2 emissions.Initial targetReduce CO2 emissions by 50% or more by 2030ResultNew target Reducing CO2 EmissionsReduced by 51.4% by the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024Reduce CO2 emissions by 67% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027Reduce CO2 emissions by 75% or more by the fiscal year ending March 31, 2030Note: Figures are compared with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.Environment
