In 2022, Tokyo Steel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. reported carbon emissions of approximately 993,000,000 kg CO2e, a reduction from about 1,130,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The emissions are entirely classified under Scope 3, which includes indirect emissions from the supply chain. Notably, the breakdown for 2022 indicates that purchased goods and services accounted for about 921,000,000 kg CO2e, while fuel and energy-related activities contributed approximately 63,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these significant emissions, Tokyo Steel has not committed to a net-zero target and currently has no long-term reduction goals in place. The company is classified under the mining sector, specifically focusing on iron, aluminium, and other metals. While they have shown a commitment to reducing emissions, their near-term targets have been removed, indicating a lack of formalised reduction strategies at this time. Overall, Tokyo Steel's emissions data highlights the challenges faced by the industry in managing carbon footprints, particularly in the context of Scope 3 emissions, which often represent the largest share of a company's total emissions.
