銆怌alculation Method of Energy Consumption銆
(Japan) Calculated based on the "the Act on Rationalizing Energy use and Shifting to Non-fossil Energy" (Energy Conservation Act)
(Overseas) Calculated using methods based on the "the Act on Rationalizing Energy use and Shifting to Non-fossil Energy" (Energy Conservation Act)

銆怌alculation Method of CO2 Emissions Scope 1 and 2銆

(Japan) Calculated based on the "Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures." From FYE 2023/3 onward, adjusted emission factors of each electricity supplier are used for calculating Scope 2 purchased electricity (basic emission factors of each electricity supplier were used until FYE 3/2022).
(Overseas) For Scope 1, emission factors based on the "Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures" are used, and for Scope 2, the latest version of IEA Emissions from Fuel Combustion is used.

Calculation Method for Scope 3

Calculations of Scope 3 for Japan and overseas are based on the emission intensities from Japan's Ministry of the Environment DB*14 and IDEA (Inventory Database for Environmental Analysis) Ver.3.2.0.

Category Calculation Method Scope & Emission Intensity, etc.
1. Purchased goods and services Before the FYE 3/2022 results
Data used: Purchase price of raw materials, etc. (millions yen)
Calculation method: Purchase price of raw materials, etc. × emission intensity per raw material, etc.

From the FYE 3/2023 results onward
Data used: Purchase weight of raw materials, etc. (t)
Calculation method: Purchase weight of raw materials, etc. × emission intensity per raw material, etc.

銉籆alculated by multiplying the purchase weight of major raw materials and packaging materials (paper, plastic, cardboard, steel, aluminum, glass) related to the food and pharmaceutical businesses by the IDEA emission intensity (For "pharmaceutical active ingredients, raw powders, raw liquids" among major raw materials, since there is no weight intensity, it is calculated by multiplying the purchase price by the IDEA emission intensity.)
銉籉rom FYE 3/2023, the calculation method has been changed from the Ministry of the Environment DB*14 based on purchase price to IDEA Ver.3.2.0 based on purchase weight (for "pharmaceutical active ingredients, raw powders, raw liquids" for which there is no emission intensity for weight, the emission intensity for purchase price of IDEA was used).
