Omron

Omron, a Japanese electrical machinery and apparatus manufacturer, reported total GHG emissions of approximately 8.79 billion kg CO2e in 2024. This included about 4.17 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, 59.46 million kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 8.73 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3. Notably, Scope 3 emissions in 2024 were significantly driven by the use of sold products, accounting for approximately 6.67 billion kg CO2e, and purchased goods and services, at around 1.52 billion kg CO2e.

Looking back, in 2016, Omron's total emissions were approximately 11.06 billion kg CO2e, comprising around 50.87 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, 199.51 million kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 10.81 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3.

Omron has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims to achieve 'Carbon Zero' by 2050 for Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions. In the near term, Omron has committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 65% by FY2030, compared to a FY2016 base year. They also aim to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 18% within the same timeframe (by FY2030 from a FY2016 base year). These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C.
