Mitsubishi has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 across all scopes. As part of its near-term goals, Mitsubishi intends to halve its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by FY2030, using FY2020 as a baseline. This reduction is expected to be driven largely by the divestment of thermal power assets. Furthermore, the company targets a 50% reduction in BMA’s electricity Scope 2 emissions by 2025, based on a 2020 baseline. Mitsubishi also aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions per total assets by 25% by 2030, compared to March 2017 levels on a consolidated basis. The company explicitly states a commitment to achieve a 100% non-fossil power generation portfolio by 2050. All emissions data and reduction targets are directly reported by Mitsubishi.
