Kintetsu World Express (KWE), headquartered in Japan and operating in the other land transportation services industry, has published its carbon emissions data and climate commitments. For the year 2024, KWE reported a total of approximately 1.92 billion kg CO2e. This breaks down into approximately 9.87 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions, and about 51.86 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 emissions. Scope 3 emissions accounted for the vast majority, totalling approximately 1.85 billion kg CO2e, with upstream transportation and distribution being the largest contributor within this scope. In 2023, the company's total emissions were approximately 1.95 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 25.38 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 47.87 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2023 were about 1.88 billion kg CO2e. KWE has set ambitious climate targets. They aim to achieve near-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by the middle of this decade. Furthermore, KWE has committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 42% by FY2030 from a FY2023 base year, aligning with 1.5°C pathways. For Scope 3 emissions, they commit to a 25% reduction by FY2030. Long-term, KWE aims for carbon neutrality (Scope 1 and 2) by 2050 and has a net-zero GHG emissions commitment across the value chain by FY2050, with a long-term target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% and Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% by FY2050, also from a FY2023 base year. This data is directly reported by KWE, and it is not cascaded from a parent organisation.
