Jtekt's reported carbon emissions
JTEKT, a machinery and equipment manufacturer based in Japan, is actively engaged in reducing its carbon footprint. For the reporting year 2025, JTEKT reported total global emissions, encompassing Scope 1, 2, and 3, of approximately 12.19 billion kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 107.54 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 494.66 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2025 were predominantly driven by the use of sold products, amounting to about 5.33 billion kg CO2e, and purchased goods and services, totalling approximately 6.49 billion kg CO2e. JTEKT has set ambitious climate commitments. A significant target is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2035. To support this, they aim for interim reductions of 35% from FY2013 levels by FY2025 and a 60% reduction by FY2030. Their greenhouse gas reduction strategy is further solidified by Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitments. JTEKT has pledged to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42.3% by FY2030 from a FY2021 baseline. Additionally, they commit to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of sold products by 25% within the same timeframe. These targets are classified as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C. In fiscal year 2021, JTEKT reported achieving a 37.7% reduction in CO2 emissions from production compared to their challenge targets, surpassing their goal of a 30% reduction by 2025. Previous data indicates that in 2016, total global emissions were approximately 769 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 111 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 658 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 7.63 billion kg CO2e. In 2015, total emissions were around 7.59 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 115 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 649 million kg CO2e. Earlier data from 2014 shows total global emissions of approximately 7.56 billion kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 of about 47.7 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 of approximately 192.3 million kg CO2e.
