NRI Group's Environmental Policy
NRI Group's Environmental PolicyTargets and Results
The NRI Group has established the following environmental targets. We aim to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 by FY 2050, a target certified by the SBTi under its Corporate Net-Zero Standard. The FY 2030 reduction target for Scopes 1 and 2 has been raised to a more ambitious level and recertified under the latest SBTi standards.

- *1 “Remaining emissions” refers to emissions that cannot be reduced within the value chain by the target fiscal year. “Neutralization” refers to offsetting these remaining emissions using carbon removal technologies outside the value chain.
- *2 Results values have been verified by a third party.
- *3 Scope 3 calculations are based on simplified methods outlined in the Ministry of the Environment's guidelines, and actual reductions are not reflected in the numbers. The calculation method is currently under review.
- *4 The values listed have been verified by a third party, based on the assumption that the simplified calculation method indicated in *3 was used.
- *5 Energy conservation measures include free cooling, and machine learning optimization of air conditioning.
