Nippon Steel's reported carbon emissions

Nippon Steel, headquartered in Japan and operating within the basic iron and steel industry, reported approximately 93.1 billion kg CO2e in total emissions for 2024. This figure encompasses Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions.

The company has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for carbon neutrality by 2050. To achieve this, Nippon Steel is focused on two key areas: developing high-performance steel products that contribute to societal CO2 reduction and decarbonising its own steelmaking processes.

More specifically, Nippon Steel and its group companies, including those with blast furnaces and electric furnaces, have set a target to reduce CO2 emissions by 30% by 2030, using 2013 as a baseline. This target applies to all scopes of emissions.

In addition to its own targets, the company is involved with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Nippon Steel Corporation commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 49.8% by FY2030 from an FY2020 baseline. Furthermore, it has committed to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 25% within the same timeframe. The SBTi has classified these targets as consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C.
