We accelerate the energy transition through innovative technologies towards a carbon-neutral future. Through Sustainability 2030, we aim to achieve carbon-neutrality in our own operations by 2030. In addition, we target to reduce our emissions along the value chain by 50% with customers, partners, and suppliers, supporting SDG 7 ‘Affordable and Clean Energy’ and aligned with the Paris agreement to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.​

Hitachi Energy has reached its first-step target to use 100% fossil-free electricity in its own operations in 2022, stepping up the pace in achieving its Sustainability 2030 target of becoming carbon-neutral. By using 100% fossil-free electricity in its own operations, Hitachi Energy reduced its CO2e equivalent emissions by over 50% compared to 2019. The targeted 50% reduction achieved ahead of plan will amount to approx. 175 kilo tonnes CO2e per year, equivalent to removing over 35,000 passenger cars off the road.
