Notes
- The scope of data collection includes all domestic and overseas bases.
- We have added figures of an new consolidated production subsidiary in India since FY 2020.
- No heat was purchased.
Volumes of fuel purchased are aggregated based on lower heating value (J) and converted at a rate of 3,600 GJ, or 3.6 TJ, to 1 GWh. - “Total” includes the amount of purchased electricity generated from renewable sources but excludes the amount of electricity generated in-house (both non-renewable and renewable energy).

Notes
- The scope of data collection includes figures from factories, offices, etc. of Fuji Electric and all consolidated subsidiaries in Japan and from overseas consolidated production subsidiaries of the Company.
- We have added figures of an new consolidated production subsidiary in India since FY 2020.
- Power coefficients are used to calculate the indirect CO2 emissions from power plants for each kWh of electricity purchased.
For Japan, the average power coefficients (post credit redemption) for Japan used in Keirenden’s Action Plan for Commitment to a Low-Carbon Society (0.444kg-CO2e/kWh for fiscal 2019) are utilized. - For overseas, the average power coefficients for the respective countries described in IEA-Emission Factors (2020 edition) are utilized. Coefficients for [fiscal] 2018 are used for fiscal 2020.

- In fiscal 2020 calculation methods were revised as follows.
- Emissions intensity databases used for calculations were changed as follows:
Ministry of Environment's Database on Emissions Intensities for Calculating Greenhouse Gas Emissions, etc. through a Supply Chain: Changed from Version 2.0 (March 2013) to Version 3.0 (March 2020)
Category 3 energy procurement emissions intensity: Changed to LCI Database IDEAv2 (Ver. 2.3)
- Some categories previously only included data for Japan, but all categories now cover Company-wide data, including estimates for overseas components. - CO2 emissions during business travel and commuting: Updated only once every two years given the few major fluctuations and no significant impact on overall emissions.
- Products for industrial applications are not included in the scope of calculations because they are included in customer emission reports. Calculations are within the scope of impacts from our products, including lost power from power supply parts for consumer televisions and computers, as well as consumed power and volume of refrigerant gas in vending machines and showcases.

- Total waste is the amount of unnecessary articles created during production activities (industrial waste, general waste, and valuable waste).
- Ratio of waste sent to landfills is calculated as follows: Waste sent to landfills ÷ Total waste

- Hazardous waste: Under Japan’s Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act, businesses are responsible for all of the industrial waste they generate (including the issuing of manifests and final disposal). This law does not distinguish between hazardous waste and non-hazardous waste. We consider hazardous waste to be harmful waste materials and we therefore retallied our figures according to the following types of waste: waste oil, waste acid and waste alkali, organic and inorganic sludge, and used activated carbon.
Water Resources

Total | Total water intake | 13,348 | 13,165 | 12,523 | 13,478 | 13,398 | 13,336 |
Notes:
- “Potable water” refers to drinkable tap water. “Industrial water” refers to water for industrial purposes that is not drinkable.
- Total water intake in Japan is the sum of potable water purchased, industrial water purchased, and groundwater intake.
- Roughly 1,000 tons of groundwater is used annually at Fuji Electric Consul Neowatt, our new subsidiary in Indiafrom fiscal 2020
