In carrying out these endeavors, the Group鈥檚 newly set greenhouse gas emissions reduction target for 2030 was recognized as being consistent with the 1.5 degrees Celsius level, which aims to limit the increase in global average temperature to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Moreover, HAZAMA ANDO reacquired certification under the Science Based Target (SBT) Initiative锛圢辞迟别1锛� in December 2024 锛圱补产濒别1锛�.
In December 2019, the HAZAMA ANDO Group adopted the WB2 degrees Celsius level as its greenhouse gas emissions reduction target, based on scientific evidence to limit the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 degrees Celsius compared with the pre-industrial level and acquired SBT certification锛圢辞迟别2锛�. In light of the recent accelerated movement toward achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, the Company has revised its greenhouse gas emissions reduction target to the 1.5 degrees Celsius level.
In addition to energy- and resource-saving activities, HAZAMA ANDO is working on the following items to achieve its established target value.
- Scope1鈥se of alternatives to diesel fuels (biodiesel, etc.) and the promotion of efforts to electrify construction work (including the introduction of electric construction machinery)
- Scope2鈥se of electricity generated from renewable energy sources
- Scope3鈥evelopment of low-carbon concrete for use in construction work and the use of low-carbon materials; the promotion of net zero energy buildings (ZEB), etc.
The HAZAMA ANDO Group has set efforts to 鈥渃reate environmental value鈥� as one of Four Value Creation strategies under VISION2030锛圢辞迟别3锛� its long-term vision and is working steadily to promote initiatives in a bid to contribute to the realization of a decarbonized, low environmental impact, recycling-oriented to leave a fertile global environment for the next generation going forward.
