In 2023, Topcon reported total carbon emissions of approximately 248,695,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 3,552,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 8,833,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 236,310,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of about 228,257,000 kg CO2e, indicating an increase in emissions. Topcon's emissions data reveals a reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the majority of their carbon footprint. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for clearer commitments in addressing their carbon emissions. Overall, while Topcon's emissions have risen, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
