Scope 3 accounts for ••• of total emissions.
Tokyo Electron, a Japanese company in the Electrical machinery and apparatus sector, reported its most recent emissions data for 2025. The company's total emissions for 2025 were approximately 12.74 billion kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 22 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 25 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of roughly 12.69 billion kg CO2e. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions in 2025 were the use of sold products (about 7.42 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 4.49 billion kg CO2e).
Looking back, Tokyo Electron's total emissions were about 11.87 billion kg CO2e in 2024 and approximately 14.38 billion kg CO2e in 2023.
Tokyo Electron has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by FY2040. This net-zero target was accelerated in December 2023 from a previous goal of 2050.
For near-term targets, Tokyo Electron commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 70% by FY2030 from a FY2018 base year. The company also aims to increase active annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 2% in FY2018 to 100% by FY2030. Furthermore, Tokyo Electron commits to reducing Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 55% per wafer processed by FY22030 from a FY2021 base year. These near-term targets for Scope 1 and 2 emissions are consistent with a 1.5°C global warming scenario according to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
For long-term targets, Tokyo Electron commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by FY2040 from a FY2018 base year, and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% by FY2040 from a FY2021 base year. These long-term targets are also aligned with a 1.5°C trajectory.
