News Release

Kintetsu World Express, Inc. is working toward carbon neutrality with 100% of power consumption by its sites and affiliated companies in Japan now effectively from renewable energy sources.

KWE has purchased FIT non-fossil fuel energy certificates (with tracking)*¹ totaling 29 million kWh, which will reduce our Scope 2 CO₂ emissions, that is, the greenhouse gases associated with our energy consumption, of approximately 11,600 tons*² in fiscal year 2022 to effectively zero.

KWE’s material topics for sustainability include reducing CO₂ emissions and promoting green energy use, and we are moving ahead on setting emission reduction targets and planning specific initiatives for the KWE Group overall. We are committed to reducing CO₂ emissions both in Japan and worldwide in order to mitigate the environmental burden of our global business operations.
