Hitachi Capital's reported carbon emissions
In 2018, Hitachi Capital reported total carbon emissions of approximately 141,490,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes emissions across all scopes: Scope 1 emissions were about 1,870,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 2,600,000,000 kg CO2e. The majority of their emissions stemmed from Scope 3, with significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 9,510,000,000 kg CO2e) and downstream transportation and distribution (approximately 125,490,000,000 kg CO2e). Despite the substantial emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Hitachi Capital. This lack of defined initiatives may reflect broader industry trends where companies are increasingly pressured to establish clear climate commitments. As a leading organisation in the financial services sector, Hitachi Capital's future climate strategies will be crucial in addressing their carbon footprint and aligning with global sustainability goals.
