Insights into AGC's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways

As of 2024, AGC has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.

Does AGC have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?

As of 2024, AGC has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.

AGC's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 50% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Japanese Yen (JPY) of Revenue in 2019.

As of 2023, AGC is ahead of schedule on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 67.54% of the planned reduction.
