Interim Targets

Emissions reduction target

2030
Description of Interim Target

https://icapcarbonaction.com/en/?option=com_etsmap&task=export&format=pdf&layout=list&systems%5B%5D=84 In fiscal year 2018, the Saitama ETS achieved a 29% reduction in emissions below base- year emissions. In April 2020, the Saitama ETS entered its third compliance period (FY2020-2024), which requires facilities to reduce emissions by 20% or 22% below baseline emissions, depending on their category. The ‘Zero Carbon Saitama’ initiative was announced in 2018 and includes cooperation with the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee to fully offset the GHG emissions from the (postponed) Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games. As part of this initiative, companies may donate excess credits from the ETS. Companies that do not possess credits but still wish to make donations may purchase credits from larger facilities within the ETS. Credit donations to the program closed in September 2020.
