NEC named to the CDP "A List" for advanced Climate Change and Water Security initiatives four years in a row

TOKYO, Dec 13, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - NEC Corporation (TSE: 6701) has been recognized for leadership in corporate sustainability by global environmental non-profit CDP(1), securing a place on its prestigious "A List" four years in a row for tackling climate change, as well as acting to protect water security.


NEC has set forth a policy for "Living harmoniously with the earth to secure the future" under the NEC 2030VISION and positioned decarbonization as a priority management theme, materiality, from an ESG perspective. While working on the Mid-term Management Plan 2025, NEC is striving to provide solutions that contribute to realizing a decarbonized society, responding to global warming, and guaranteeing food and water security.

In addition to conducting business operations towards achieving SBT 1.5deg(2), NEC signed the "Business Ambition for 1.5degC Pledge"(3) in October 2021 and declared that greenhouse gas emissions throughout its entire supply chain will be virtually zero by 2050. Furthermore, NEC is accelerating activities with a view to achieving this declaration 10 years ahead of schedule.
