Nippon Telegraph And Telephone's reported carbon emissions

Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT), a company operating in the post and telecommunication services industry in Japan, has established ambitious climate commitments. **Carbon Emissions:** In the reporting year 2024, NTT reported a total of approximately 20.54 billion kg CO2e. This figure breaks down into: * **Scope 1:** Approximately 130 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2:** Approximately 1.99 billion kg CO2e (market-based) or 3.66 billion kg CO2e (location-based). * **Scope 3:** Approximately 18.42 billion kg CO2e. For the preceding year, 2023, NTT's total emissions were approximately 21.03 billion kg CO2e, comprising: * **Scope 1:** Approximately 150 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2:** Approximately 2.17 billion kg CO2e (market-based) or 3.84 billion kg CO2e (location-based). * **Scope 3:** Approximately 18.83 billion kg CO2e. **Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:** NTT is committed to achieving carbon neutrality by fiscal year 2040. This long-term goal is supported by several significant reduction targets: * **Near-Term Targets (by FY2030):** * An 80% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from a fiscal year 2013 baseline. * A 40% reduction in absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions from a fiscal year 2018 base year. * Specifically, Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and use of sold products are targeted for a 15% reduction by FY2030 from a FY2018/19 base year. * A further commitment to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions by 32% by FY2030 from a FY2018 base year. * **Long-Term Targets (by FY2040):** * Achieving net-zero emissions across the value chain. * A 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions from a fiscal year 2018 base year. These targets, including the commitment to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 80% from FY2018/19 levels by FY2030/31, have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with keeping warming to 1.5°C. NTT's approach to decarbonisation includes initiatives aimed at reducing emissions from their own operations and encouraging reductions throughout their value chain.
