Environmental Management Indicators

Since FY 2001, NEC has been disclosing the economic costs corresponding to environmental impacts as environmental management indicators so as to contribute to the proliferation of environmental management.
The indicators show the effects of environmental activities on business management and whether business management is being carried out efficiently with light environmental impacts. Four items that take NEC's business characteristics and the impacts of NEC's business on society into consideration were selected as environmental aspects for evaluation - these are "resource productivity," "prevention of global warming," "reduction in chemical substances", and "reduction in waste materials". Next, based on NEC's basic environmental management concept, two areas - "areas directly related to business activities" and "indirectly related areas" - were set as areas in which NEC can contribute to its customers and society through its products and services.
*In FY 2011, Renesas Electronics became a nonconsolidated company and the environmental impact and sales changed greatly compared with previous fiscal year.

FY 2013

Areas directly related to business activities

Economic cost corresponding to economic impact (directly related areas)

Indicator FY 2012 FY 2013Increase or Decrease
Resource Productivity 480,000 yen/ton 500,000 yen/ton +20,000 yen/ton
Prevention of global warming 7.55 million yen/ton 6.98 million yen/ton -0.57 yen/ton
Reduction in chemical substances 250 million yen/ton 340 million yen/ton +90 million yen/ton
Reduction in waste materials 90 million yen/ton 40 million yen/ton -50 million yen/ton

Resource productivity:
Sales per input of resource = Sales/∑ (Volume of resources purchased + Energy consumption) x Resource input coefficient

Prevention of global warming:
Sales per CO₂ emission = Sales/∑ energy consumption x CO₂ emission coefficient

Reduction in chemical substances:
Sales per purchased volume of chemical substances regulated by law = Sales/Purchased volume of chemical substances regulated by law

Reduction in waste materials:
Sales per generated volume of waste = Sales/Volume of generated waste


Areas indirectly related to business activities

Contribution to Society (Indirectly Related Areas)

Indicator FY 2012 FY 2013 Increase or Reduction
Resource Productivity 67% 66% -1%
Prevention of Global Warming 66% 64% -2%

Resource productivity:
Sales rate of environmentally sound products = Eco symbol product sales/Total sales

Prevention of global warming:
Contributions made by environmentally sound products to the reduction of CO₂ emissions = Average power consumption of Eco symbol products/Average power consumption of conventional products
