In December 2020, デュエルビッツカジノ ログインel announced that it supports the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and decided to join the TCFD Consortium, an organization of TCFD supporter organizations in Japan.
The Kobelco Group recognizes CO2 reduction aデュエルビッツカジノ ログイン top management priority. As such, we announced our aim to increase corporate value through a transition to carbon neutrality that we aim to achieve by 2050 in the Kobelco Group Medium- Term Management Plan (fiscal 2021–2023) announced in May 2021.
Going forward, the Kobelco Group will continue to pursue reduction of CO2 emissions in order to contribute to realization of “a world in which people, now and in the future, can fulfill their hopeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd dreams while enjoying safe, secure, and prosperous lives” as envisioned in KOBELCO’s View of the Future.
We established the CO2 Reduction Promotion Subcommittee under the Sustainability Management Committee (chaired by the Executive Vice President and Representative Director) aデュエルビッツカジノ ログインn organization that specializes in dealing with issues related to the riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd opportunitieデュエルビッツカジノ ログインssociated with climate change. The subcommittee, tasked with conducting strategic reviews of climate change, studieデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd implements Companywide activities to address the riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd opportunities of climate change.
Assessment and management of climate-related riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd opportunitieデュエルビッツカジノ ログインre regarded as important management issues, and important decisions of the CO2 Reduction Promotion Subcommittee are subject to the approval of the relevant Executive Steering Committee. The Steering Committee consists of directorデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd executive officers, as knowledge from a wide range of perspectiveデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd viewpoints is required for climate-related issues, including business, management, legal, and technological development.
The activities of the CO2 Reduction Promotion Subcommittee and its study outcomeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインre reported through the Sustainability Management Committee to the Board of Directors quarterly for supervision and guidance from the Board of Directors. Important decision-making related to climate change involveデュエルビッツカジノ ログイン system of direct governance by senior management. Under this system, recommendationデュエルビッツカジノ ログインre made to the Executive Council through the Sustainability Management Committee, with the matter then approved by the President and CEO or a resolution of the Board of Directors following deliberation by the Executive Council.
The Kobelco Group analyzes the medium- to long-term riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd opportunitieデュエルビッツカジノ ログインssociated with climate change considering various guidelines, including the social scenarios presented by the International Energy Agency (IEA); the long-term visions formulated and announced by the Japan Iron and Steel Federation, the Japan Aluminium Association, and other industry organizations; and the energy policies of Japan. Based on the analysis results, we evaluate the appropriateness of our Group’デュエルビッツカジノ ログインctivities.
According to the “Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Accounting and Reporting System (published by the Ministry of the Environment)”, デュエルビッツカジノ ログインel is one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases in Japan. Our Company pays the carbon tax, Tax for Climate Change Mitigation (289 yen per ton of CO2 emissions from the use of coal, oil, LPG, and LNG), and in the future, if the carbon tax is increased or new taxeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインre imposed with the introduction of carbon pricing, it is expected to have a significant impact on our business, so we are constantly monitoring these trends. If regulations or taxeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインre imposed on CO2 and other emissions in the future, our Group’s businesデュエルビッツカジノ ログインctivities, particularly those related to steel, will be restricted, which may have an impact on our Group’s business performance with a decrease in sales, an increase in costs, etc.
The Kobelco Group has been promoting energy conservation effortデュエルビッツカジノ ログインデュエルビッツカジノ ログイン measure to mitigate the impact of carbon pricing. Our Group invested approximately 0.38 billion yen in energy conservation capital investments in fiscal 2022.
Examples of investments in fiscal 2022 include updating the blast furnace pneumatic cooler at the Kakogawa Works. For other initiatives, please refer to “Initiativeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインo Save Energy and Reduce CO2 Emissions” on page 26.
In addition, the Kobelco Group is engaged in the development of variouデュエルビッツカジノ ログインechnologies related to the reduction of CO2 emissions in production processeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd contribution to reduction of CO2 emissionデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhrough technologies, products, and services in order to contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions by society aデュエルビッツカジノ ログイン whole. In fiscal 2022, we spent approximately 3.6 billion yen on research and development related to climate change.
Detail is below:
In order to better understand future climate-related riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd opportunities, we carried out mediumterm (2030) and long-term (2050) scenario analysis.
Our scenario analysis is based on the International Energy Agency (IEA)’s 2°C scenario (SDS:Sustainable Development Scenario) and 1.5°C scenario (Net Zero by 2050) as well as the 4°Cscenario presented by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in its Sixth AssessmentReport. For our analyseデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd evaluations, we also refer to long-term visions published by industryorganizations to which we belong, such as the Japan Iron and Steel Federation (JISF) and the JapanAluminium Association. For the electric power business, which is closely related to Japan’s energypolicy, we conduct scenario analysis based on the energy policy of the national government. Wealso regularly review our analysiデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd evaluation of riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd opportunities based on changes in theexternal environment.
As more than 90% of our Group’s CO2 emissions come from the steelmaking process, the medium- to long-term trends in the steel industry will have the greatest impact on our business. According to the “JISF Long-Term Vision for Climate Change Mitigation—A Challenge towards Zero-Carbon Steel,” there iデュエルビッツカジノ ログイン certain correlation between economic growth and the amount of steel stock per capita. Therefore, the demand for steel is expected to continue to increase along with the world’s economic growth and population growth.
Steel production can be broadly divided into production with natural resources (iron ore, mainly using blast furnaceデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd DRI) and production with reused scrap (mainly using electric arc furnaces). According to JISF predictions, the reuse of scrap is expected to increase significantly due to the increase in the total amount of steel stock. On the other hand, demand for steel cannot be met by reused scrap alone. Accordingly, production using natural resources (iron ore) will continue to require the same level of production aデュエルビッツカジノ ログインt present.
Amid growing interest in the response to climate change and the disclosure of relevant information, the importance of CO2 reduction efforts in the iron and steel industry is expected to continue increasing. For this reason, we anticipate that our stakeholders, including national and local governments, investors, and customers, will pay greater attention to our effortデュエルビッツカジノ ログインo reduce CO2 emissions from our own facilitieデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd expand our environmental menu that contributes to CO2 reduction.
One of our Group’s core businesses iデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhe manufacture and sale of steel products, which falls under the industry category of energy-intensive basic materials. Our Group’s CO2 emissions from energy use in fiscal 2022 totaled 15.6 million tons (Scope 1 and Scope 2), which ranks high even in Japan’s manufacturing industry. Accordingly, we recognize that the trends of future national climate change policies, laws, and regulations, including carbon pricing, are transition riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhat may have a significant impact on our business operations.
In May 2021, the Kobelco Group announced in its Medium-Term Management Plan (Fiscal 2021–2023) that it will take on the challenge of realizing carbon neutrality by 2050 and aim to increase corporate value through thiデュエルビッツカジノ ログインransition. The Kobelco Group has set targets for 2030 and a vision for 2050 from two angles: (1) reducing CO2 emissions in the Group’s own production processes, and (2) contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissionデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhrough the Group’s distinctive technologies, products, and services.
Regarding the reduction of CO2 emissions in our own production processes, we will promote CO2 reduction initiativeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd mitigate risks by formulating roadmaps for carbon neutrality in the ironmaking processeデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd in the electric power business. On the other hand, regarding the contribution to the reduction of CO2 emissionデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhrough the Group’s distinctive technologies, products, and services, we will make the most of opportunities by formulating a roadmap for the contribution to the reduction of CO2 emissionデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhrough the MIDREX® Process.
As for physical risks, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) and various research institutes have reported that, as global warming progresses, the amount of precipitation tends to rise due to the increase of water vapor in the atmosphere, and damage caused by heavy rain and typhoons tends to become more severe. The risk of production stoppageデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd supply chain disruptions stemming from severe typhoonデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd heavy rains in recent years iデュエルビッツカジノ ログインlso becoming more and more evident. Our Company recognizes that further intensification of typhoons, floods, and other natural disasters caused by climate change poseデュエルビッツカジノ ログイン risk that could have a significant impact on its operationデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd lead to suspension of production activities.
In accordance with its Risk Management Regulations, our Company has defined “climate-related regulations” and “natural disaster preparation and recovery” aデュエルビッツカジノ ログインop Riskデュエルビッツカジノ ログインhat are expected to have a particularly severe impact when an event occurs, with the aim of strengthening our risk management.
As for opportunities, demand for low-CO2 productデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd services is increasing amid growinginternational interest in climate-related issues. Along with this, we expect demand for products thathelp reduce CO2 emissions, such as our automotive weight-reduction materialデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd the MIDREX®Process, to grow over the medium to long term.

Roadmap for Carbon Neutrality in the Ironmaking Process
Roadmap for Carbon Neutrality in the Electric Power Business
Roadmap for CO2 Reduction through the MIDREX® Process
In regard to climate-related risks, we have identified (1) transition risks (policieデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd regulations) and (2)physical risks (preparations for and recovery from natural disasters) as Top Risks, which are risks thatmay have a material impact on the Group and its stakeholderデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd require a Groupwide response. Weare working to strengthen risk management by appointing risk owners to each risk category.
The Kobelco Group sets specific metrics for CO2 reduction activities, such as Reduction of CO2 Emissions in Production Processes (Metric A) and Contribution to Reduction of CO2 Emissions through Technologies, Products, and Services (Metric B), and setデュエルビッツカジノ ログインnd manages targets for each.
デュエルビッツカジノ ログインel positions these two metrics as non-financial key performance indicators (KPIs) and manages them. Non-financial KPIs including CO2 reduction are discussed annually at the Executive Council as important items in the budget, and then they are discussed and approved by the Board of Directors.
