In 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Yamaha amounted to 139,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).a
Compared to 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Yamaha decreased by 14.2%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2024, the total Scope 1 emissions of Yamaha were 20,000 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Yamaha's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 9.09%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2023), Yamaha's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 9.09%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 106,000 tCO₂e using the market-based method and 119,000 tCO₂e using the location-based method.a
Compared to the previous year (2023), Yamaha's Scope 2 emissions (Location-Based) fell by 15% in 2024, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its energy consumption.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported 789,000 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 2024 disclosure of Yamaha includes a breakdown across 10 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2023, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported total Scope 3 emissions of 789,000 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 65.82% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 34.18% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Since 2019, Yamaha's Scope 3 emissions have decreased by 28.53%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2023), Yamaha's Scope 3 emissions decreased by 23.47%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower indirect emissions from its value chain.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported emissions for 10 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
This reflects a high level of granularity and transparency in the company's emissions reporting.
In 2024, the largest contributors to Yamaha's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2024, Yamaha reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 20,000 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 3,056 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 6.54 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 6.54 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 3.52, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, Yamaha ranked 17 out of 23 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Yamaha is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2024, Yamaha reported a total carbon footprint of 928,000 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 22.21% decrease compared to 2023, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
The largest contributor to Yamaha's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 85.02% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 12.82%.a
