Nomura Research Institute's reported carbon emissions

Nomura Research Institute (NRI), headquartered in Japan and operating within the computer and related services industry, has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its environmental impact. While specific total emissions data for the most recent years are not fully available, NRI's climate strategy is underpinned by ambitious reduction targets. **Emissions Data Overview:** * **2025:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 3,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions data were not disclosed for this year. * **2024:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 6,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions data were not disclosed. * **2023:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 19,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions data were not disclosed. * **2022:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 28,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions data were not disclosed. * **2021:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 53,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions data were not disclosed. * **2020:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions were approximately 53,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions totalling approximately 133,000,000 kg CO2e. Key Scope 3 categories included purchased goods and services (approximately 97,000,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (approximately 16,000,000 kg CO2e). **Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:** NRI has set significant targets to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions: * **Net-Zero by FY2050:** NRI aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by fiscal year 2050. * **Scope 1 & 2 Reduction:** * NRI is committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 97% by FY2030, using FY2019 as a base year. * Additionally, there's a commitment to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 72% by 2030, from a 2013 base year, as validated by SBTi. * Further long-term targets include maintaining at least a 97% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from FY2030 through FY2050. * **Scope 3 Reduction:** * NRI is committed to reducing absolute Scope 3 emissions by 30% by FY2030, compared to FY2019. * Specific Scope 3 targets include a 25% reduction in emissions from business travel and employee commuting by 2030, from a 2013 base year. * A long-term goal is to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% by FY2050 from a FY2019 base year. * **Supplier Engagement:** NRI aims for 70% of its suppliers and vendors, by emissions, to set science-based targets by 2023. These commitments underscore NRI's strategic approach to climate change mitigation within the IT and services sector.
