In response to global warming, the デュエルビッツ 初回入金ボーナスel Group promotes rationalization and R&D geared toward reducing energy consumption throughout its operations, while decreasing greenhouse gas emissions.
In fiscal 2015, the デュエルビッツ 初回入金ボーナスel Group used 219 PJ of energy (equivalent to 5.65 million kl of crude oil).
Of that total, approximately 94 percent was used in the Iron & Steel Business, and approximately 5 percent in Aluminum & Copper.
Energy Use by Business Unit (Includes Group Companies)
In fiscal 2015, total CO2 emissions for all of デュエルビッツ 初回入金ボーナスel's businesses were 18.2 Mt. Approximately 96 percent came from the Iron & Steel Business, and approximately 3 percent came from the Aluminum & Copper Business.
デュエルビッツ 初回入金ボーナスor fiscal 2015 decreased by 1 percent compared with the previous year and by 4 percent compared with fiscal 1990.
We engage in ongoing energy-saving initiatives, including improvements to productivity, optimization of equipment and reductions to energy loss.

We pursue energy-saving initiatives at our manufacturing locations to combat global warming and reduce energy costs.
The MONODZUKURI (Production System Innovation) Planning & Promotion Department, as a part of manufacturing technology exchange activities at manufacturing locations, launched an energy-saving technology subcommittee in fiscal 2012 to support energy-saving activities. In fiscal 2015 the MONODZUKURI Planning & Promotion Department undertook further energy-saving initiatives and activities to raise the level of on-site engineers through expert-led support for energy-saving technologies at locations, energy conservation exchange meetings (to share examples of energy-saving activities and information on energy-saving technologies, etc.), and training in energy conservation.
As an energy-saving technology support activity, heat diagnosis, based on more detailed measurements than before, were carried out on a variety of large and small heating equipment installed at various facilities. A range of new approaches were proposed for further energy savings, with technological guidance provided during implementation.
As of the end of fiscal 2015, proposals to reduce energy consumption by more than 10 percent per piece of equipment—a CO2 equivalent of 4,400 t/yr—were completed for six pieces of equipment at six locations, and are currently being implemented on-site.
Similar initiatives are being rolled out for heating equipment at four other sites, with the medium-term plan also calling for expansion to Group companies.
