ASAHI INTECC CO., LTD.'s reported carbon emissions

Asahi Intecc Co., Ltd., headquartered in Japan, reported its carbon emissions for 2024 at approximately 2,490,000 kg CO2e, reflecting a slight increase from 2023's emissions of about 2,367,000 kg CO2e. The company has consistently disclosed its Scope 1 emissions, which represent direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. In 2022, their Scope 1 emissions were around 2,349,000 kg CO2e, while in 2021, they reported 1,877,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 39,281,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, totalling 41,158,000 kg CO2e for both scopes combined. Despite these figures, Asahi Intecc has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal reduction targets. The absence of detailed Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability reporting. Overall, while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, further commitments and transparency regarding reduction strategies would enhance its climate action profile.
