In 2023, Tobu Railway completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy) and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, Tobu Railway has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

Compared to 2022, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Tobu Railway decreased by 6.89%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2023, the total Scope 1 emissions of Tobu Railway were 129,255 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2021, Tobu Railway's Scope 1 emissions have increased by 1,671.34%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2022), Tobu Railway's Scope 1 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Tobu Railway's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its operational footprint.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 343,024 tCO₂e using the market-based method.a
Compared to the previous year (2022), Tobu Railway's Scope 2 emissions (Market-Based) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Tobu Railway's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported 935,348 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2023 disclosure of Tobu Railway includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, down from 1 in 2022, indicating a decline in reporting granularity and reduced insight into the company's full value chain emissions.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported total Scope 3 emissions of 935,348 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Compared to the previous year (2022), Tobu Railway's Scope 3 emissions increased by 11.41%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 129,255 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 4,615 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 28.01 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 28.01 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 27.08, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway ranked 14 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Tobu Railway is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2023, Tobu Railway reported a total carbon footprint of 1,407,627 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 4.52% increase compared to 2022, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Tobu Railway's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 66.45% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 24.37%.a
