Daikin

Daikin, a Japanese machinery and equipment manufacturer, reported Scope 1 emissions of 513,738,000 kg CO2e for 2025, with Scope 2 market-based emissions at 365,511,000 kg CO2e and location-based emissions at 558,635,000 kg CO2e. Their Scope 3 emissions for 2025 included approximately 234.6 billion kg CO2e from the use of sold products, 4.6 billion kg CO2e from purchased goods and services, and about 41.7 billion kg CO2e from the end-of-life treatment of sold products.

Looking back, in 2024, Daikin's total reported emissions were approximately 313.1 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 514,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based at 366,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 312.2 billion kg CO2e. In 2023, total reported emissions were about 329.6 billion kg CO2e, comprising 524,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 407,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 market-based, and around 328.6 billion kg CO2e for Scope 3.

Daikin is committed to significant emissions reductions. They aim to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across their entire value chain by fiscal year 2050. Specifically, for near-term targets, Daikin Industries commits to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46.2% by fiscal year 2031, from a fiscal year 2020 base year. They also aim to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products and end-of-life treatment of sold products by 55% per JPY value added within the same timeframe. These targets are consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario, as verified by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). For long-term goals, Daikin is committed to a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by fiscal year 2050 from a fiscal year 2020 base year, and a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same period. They also have a target to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions from internal business activities by 30% or more by 2025 and 50% or more by 2030, using a 2019 baseline.
