Looking further ahead, Taisei has established long-term targets to achieve a 90% reduction in both Scope 1 and 2 emissions and Scope 3 emissions by 2050, also using 2022 as the baseline year. These targets are aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are designed to support the global effort to limit warming to 1.5°C. The company’s emissions data is self-reported and does not appear to be cascaded from a parent organization. Taisei's commitment to sustainability is evident in its strategic plans, which include ongoing initiatives to reduce emissions across its operations and supply chain.
