In 2023, Chubu Electric Power generated a total of 50,000 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 98.3% of Chubu Electric Power's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 1.7% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Chubu Electric Power reported a total waste generation of 50,000 metric tonnes, of which 98.3% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Chubu Electric Power has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Since 2019, Chubu Electric Power's total waste generation increased by 38.89%, including a 11.11% increase in 2023, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.
Over the same period, Chubu Electric Power's waste recovery rate increased by 1.13%, including a 1.03% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Chubu Electric Power has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2023. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.
In 2023, Chubu Electric Power generated a total of 50,000 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 4% of Chubu Electric Power's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment. 96% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2019, Chubu Electric Power's total waste generation increased by 38.89%, including a 11.11% rise in 2023, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.
Over the same period, Chubu Electric Power reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 52%, with a further 10% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, Chubu Electric Power is generating more waste but has significantly reduced the share of hazardous materials, suggesting a partial decoupling of volume and toxicity that could reflect more responsible inputs or enhanced treatment.
