CO2 Emissions

In collaboration with the NEC Environment and Material Research Laboratories, we have employed accounting data to calculate the CO2 emissions in the course of our business operations. Starting from the materials procurement stage in which we obtain spare parts or materials from outside sources, to service activities and recycling activities, we are developing business activities that take into consideration the indirect environmental impact they may carry.





Scope of CO2 Emissions Assessment

Capital procurement
Spare parts, construction materials, media materials, property (buildings, structures, tools, instruments, fixtures, machinery newly acquired in this fiscal year)
Service activities
Fuel expenses, electricity, gas, water, sewage
Recycling
Recovered resource, reused resources

Materials procurement

Includes the CO2 emissions annually at other companies in the production of materials and equipment for spare parts and other products purchased by NEC Fielding

Calculated from Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) data gathered using a system constructed by the NEC Environment and Material Research Laboratories, which is based on the purchase price of purchased products and Input-Output Tables

Service activities
Includes CO2 emissions from energy use, such as electricity and gas, at NEC Fielding
Calculated using energy consumption and LCA data

Recycling
Includes equivalent value of CO2 emissions caused by recycling less CO2 emissions that would normally have occurred in the production of materials that have been recycled
Calculated using performance in resource recovery


CO2 Emissions



Materials purchases (thousand tons) Service activities (thousand tons) Recycling (thousand tons) Total (thousand tons) Net sales
(¥ million)
CO2 unit emission by sales (tons/ ¥ million)
FY2001 316 37 -1 352 227,266 1.55
FY2002 313 35 -1 347 238,774 1.45

Total CO2 emissions in fiscal 2002 amounted to approximately 34.7 tons. This was a 0.5 ton reduction compared with fiscal 2001, reflecting a concerted effort to control CO2 emissions at the materials sourcing and service activities stages. Due to the fact that the Company was able to limit total emissions despite a 5% rise in net sales, the CO2 unit emission per sales fell approximately 6%.


Note:
Calculated and analyzed using the Evaluation of Environmental Impact of Business Activities Using Accounting Data method developed by the NEC Environment and Material Research Laboratories.
