Mean score of companies in the Electrical Machinery Manufacturing industry. Comparing a company's score to the industry average can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
Tokyo Electron's score of 51 is higher than 97% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
In 2023, Tokyo Electron reported total carbon emissions of approximately 14,333,000,000 kg CO2e globally. This figure includes 22,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 20,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and about 14,331,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which primarily encompass indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. The company's emissions have shown fluctuations over the years. For instance, in 2022, total emissions were around 12,554,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalling 90,000,000 kg CO2e. Notably, Scope 3 emissions accounted for the majority, at approximately 12,554,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite the significant emissions, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Tokyo Electron. The absence of specific reduction initiatives indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. As the semiconductor industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding sustainability, Tokyo Electron's commitment to addressing its carbon footprint will be crucial for aligning with global climate goals.
