Keisei Group’s environmental initiatives
Metrics and targets
Keisei Group’s business operations are centered on the railway business, which is relatively friendly to the global environment. Nevertheless, in view of the various impacts of climate change, we have set the Group-wide targets indicated below for reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, which are one of the causes of global warming. We are committed going forward to making our contribution to realizing carbon neutrality by promoting greater energy efficiency.
Keisei Group aims to achieve a 46% reduction in CO2 emissions by FY2030 compared to FY2013 and to achieve net zero emissions (carbon neutrality) by FY2050.
* Scope of target: Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of October 1, 2022
TCFD initiatives
As a comprehensive lifestyle business group, Keisei Group promotes corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities and aims to contribute to the development of society. With the global environment threatened by global warming and climate change, we regard climate change as our own problem and always act with consideration for harmony with the natural environment, in accordance with the “Group Action Guidelines for the Environment” set out in Keisei Group Philosophy. Recently, there has been a growing interest among investors and other stakeholders in risks and opportunities that climate change presents to companies. In July 2022, Keisei Electric Railway announced its endorsement of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations, and is working to disclose information based on the TCFD framework.

ZEH initiatives
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism says that the ideal state for homes in 2030 is that new houses are equipped with energy-saving features that meet the ZEH standards.
To reduce the environmental impact of its detached house business, Keisei Electric Railway will continue to deliberate on the introduction of ZEH-M for the new condominium buildings it will supply in the future.
