Nomura Research Institute

Nomura Research Institute (NRI), a Japanese company operating in computer and related services, is committed to significant carbon emission reductions. As of their reporting year of 2025, they reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 3,000,000 kg CO2e.

NRI has set ambitious climate targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). They aim to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 97% by FY2030, using FY2019 as a baseline. Furthermore, they are committed to a 30% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by FY2030, also from a FY2019 baseline. Looking further ahead, NRI aims to achieve Net-Zero emissions across their entire value chain by FY2050.

Historical data shows a reduction in Scope 2 emissions from approximately 77,000,000 kg CO2e in FY2016 to approximately 3,000,000 kg CO2e in FY2025, alongside Scope 1 emissions remaining relatively stable at approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e in recent years. Scope 3 emissions were reported at approximately 133,000,000 kg CO2e in FY2020, with purchased goods and services being the largest contributor.
