This reflects a commitment to transparency in their emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. In previous years, the company has shown a trend of reducing its emissions. For instance, in 2020, their total emissions were about 40,200,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined, indicating a significant reduction over the years.

Despite these reductions, JVC Kenwood has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or reduction initiatives, which may limit their ability to align with global climate goals. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context. Overall, while JVC Kenwood Holdings has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of formal reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
