We will continue to promote the acquisition of global integrated certification by overseas Group companies as we strengthen Companywide initiatives in environmental preservation. Reducing Energy Usage and CO2 EmissionsAs part of its climate change countermeasures, the Group is working to reduce energy usage and CO2 emissions. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, LINTEC’s total energy consumption increased year on year to 15,000 kiloliters of crude oil equivalent, due to higher production volumes, despite efforts to promote the efficient operation of production facilities and boilers. Its CO2 emissions rose 11,000 tons from the previous fiscal year, to 159,000 tons. LINTEC has set Group targets for reducing CO2 emissions by 50% or more by 2030 compared with the fiscal 2013 level, and for achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. Complying with Environmental Laws, Directives, and RegulationsThe LINTEC Group seeks to be compliant with environmental laws, directives, and regulations in Japan and overseas and reduce chemical substances that are harmful to the environment. In addition to responding to restricted substances stipulated by REACH*1 and RoHS,*2 we check for substances with environmen-tal impact in the raw materials that we purchase and disclose necessary information to our customers. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, on a non-consolidated basis the total handling volume of substances under the PRTR system was 6,944 tons, of which 6,800 tons were toluene, an organic solvent. Toluene emitted into the atmosphere amounted to 434 tons, an increase of 35 tons compared with that of the previous fiscal year, while the quantity transferred (treated as waste) was 20 tons more than in the previous fiscal year, at 516 tons.
