Kajima's reported carbon emissions

Kajima Corporation, headquartered in Japan, has reported a total of approximately 139.8 billion kg CO2e in emissions for the reporting year 2024. This figure encompasses Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. Specifically, for 2024, Kajima's emissions include approximately 2.94 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 and approximately 1.55 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2. Scope 3 emissions for the same year were reported as approximately 134.09 billion kg CO2e. Major contributors to Scope 3 emissions include purchased goods and services (approximately 6.95 billion kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 4.88 billion kg CO2e). Kajima has established several climate commitments with a base year of FY2021. They aim for a 23% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by FY2026 and a 42% reduction by FY2030. For Scope 3 emissions, the company targets a 10% reduction by FY2026 and a 25% reduction by FY2030. Kajima has also committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 for both its own operations (Scope 1 and 2) and its entire value chain (Scope 3). These targets are aligned with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitments, which include reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by FY2030 from a FY2021 base year. Kajima also commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of sold products by 25% within the same timeframe. The SBTi classification indicates that these targets are consistent with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C.
