Murata Plans to Achieve RE100 15 Years Ahead of Schedule, and Sets New Carbon Neutrality Targets
September 30, 2024 | MurataEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has decided to move its target date for achieving 100% renewable energy sourcing forward by 15 years (FY2035) and targets achieving carbon neutrality by FY2040 for the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within Murata, and carbon neutrality by FY 2050 across the entire supply chain, given the urgent need of climate change countermeasure in the society. Murata thus accelerates its climate change countermeasures and contributes to the realization of a sustainable society.
Murata has always conducted business activities as a manufacturing company committed to “contributing to the advancement of society” and “applying scientific approach,” as set out in our philosophy, while at the same time promoting environmental initiatives and setting and achieving ambitious targets regarding climate change countermeasures.
In response to the increase of climate crisis in recent years, and changes in the international situation related to climate change, we will move forward with our plan to source renewable energy from the current schedule and set new targets for decarbonization, thereby contributing to the mitigation of climate change.
By accelerating our efforts, we will contribute to reducing the environmental impact of our products both on our customers and society, ultimately working towards a sustainable society.
