Tokyo Electron

Tokyo Electron Limited, a company within the electrical machinery and apparatus sector headquartered in Japan, reported a total of approximately 12.7 billion kg CO2e in emissions for the year 2025. This figure encompasses Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. Breaking this down, Scope 1 emissions amounted to approximately 22 million kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 25 million kg CO2e. The vast majority of emissions, approximately 12.7 billion kg CO2e, were attributed to Scope 3.

In 2024, Tokyo Electron Limited's total emissions were approximately 11.9 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 21 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 22 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2024 totalled roughly 11.8 billion kg CO2e.

For 2023, the company reported total emissions of approximately 14.4 billion kg CO2e, comprising about 22 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 and approximately 20 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). Scope 3 emissions for this year were approximately 14.3 billion kg CO2e.

Tokyo Electron Limited has established ambitious climate commitments. The company aims to achieve net zero emissions by 2040, a significant advancement from its previous 2050 target. This net-zero goal spans all scopes of emissions across the value chain. In alignment with this, Tokyo Electron has set long-term targets to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by FY2040 from a FY2018 baseline, and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% by FY2040 from a FY2021 base year.

More immediate targets include reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 70% by FY2030 from a FY2018 base year. Furthermore, the company is committed to increasing its sourcing of renewable electricity to 100% by FY2030, from 2% in FY2018. For Scope 3, Tokyo Electron aims to reduce emissions from the use of sold products by 55% per wafer processed by FY2030, using a FY2021 baseline.

Prior to these, the company had set targets to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 30% by 2030 from 2020 levels and aimed to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. Additionally, there was a medium-term goal to reduce per-wafer CO2 emissions by 30% by fiscal year 2031, compared to fiscal year 2014 levels.
