This certification recognizes these GHG reduction targets as science-based targets to achieve the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius advocated by the Paris Agreement.

OMRON identified key sustainability initiatives in the SF2030 Long-Term Vision that began in April 2022, for the first time as part of its long-term vision.

Therein, OMRON will work to fulfill its social responsibilities and further enhance its competitiveness as a company recognizing the risks and opportunities brought by climate change in accordance with the OMRON Environmental Policy.

The GHG emissions reduction targets certified by the SBTi are intended to implement an initiative to reduce GHG emissions throughout the value chain under the SF2030, using measures outlined by the OMRON Environmental Policy, which include providing products and services that contribute to decarbonization, improving energy usage efficiency, and expanding the use of renewable energy.

The GHG emissions reduction targets OMRON set in the SF2030 are as follows:
