  • 3. Cumulative number of completed units ranked ZEH Oriented or higher. Target for ratio to sales increased for FY2022
  • 4. Number of units renovated to Idocoro Dan-netsu concept with partial thermal insulation and heating systems
  • 5. Ratio of the amount of post-FIT photovoltaic power and other power purchased by Sekisui House Owner Denki to the total amount of electricity consumed in our business operations
  • 6. Scope 3 Category 11 emissions reduction rate relative to FY2013 levels. Calculation is based on the current science-based target boundary (excluding Konoike Construction Co., Ltd.)
  • 7. Scope 1 and 2 emissions reduction rate relative to FY2013

Konoike Construction Co., Ltd. became a wholly owned subsidiary in FY2019. We enable time series comparability for emissions by retroactively adding Konoike's CO2 emissions for FY2013 to Sekisui House Group CO2 emissions for FY2013, which is the baseline year for the Group's planned CO2 emissions target. We have also adjusted emissions reduction by retroactively adding Konoike's emissions to the Group's for FY2017 through FY2019. In addition, our methodology has changed beginning with this report. We now include energy (electric power, light oil, gasoline, kerosene) that partner companies use in Scope 3. We have recalculated the reduction rate by retroactively adding CO2 emissions from fiscal 2013, which is the baseline year for the Group's CO2 emissions target, and CO2 emissions from FY2017 through FY2020.

Environmental Data

Material balance (monitoring of environmental impact of business activities in FY2021)

To make its environmental-conservation activities as effective as possible, the Sekisui House Group monitors and reports on environmental impacts at each stage of the housing-product lifecycle, including development and design, factory production, construction and demolition in Japan and overseas.

  1. We have changed the method for recognizing CO2 emissions from energy used during construction by partner companies that have no capital relationship with the Group to Scope 3 Category 1 from FY2021. Therefore, energy used by partner companies during construction is not included in the energy data above. Energy consumption was 160,399 MWh, and the CO2 emissions were 44,689 t-CO2 when calculated using the conventional method.
  2. Emissions from the head office building

Notes 1 The unit of energy consumption (total) changed from GJ to MWh in FY2021.

Notes 2 All the figures for waste from business activities include valuables.

Notes 3 Scope: The subjects of this survey are Sekisui House (non-consolidated basis), its major consolidated subsidiaries in Japan (38 companies), and major consolidated subsidiaries overseas (12 companies).

Period: The data is for FY2021 (from February 2021 to January 2022). The figures include estimates in cases where final data was unavailable at the time of calculation.

Calculation method

• Energy consumption and CO2 emissions at Sekisui House (non-consolidated basis), 38 major domestic consolidated subsidiaries and 12 major overseas consolidated subsidiaries

• Beginning with FY2021, the unit for energy consumption (total) has changed from GJ to MWh. Energy consumption (GJ) = [ (Purchased electricity) + ∑ [(Fuel consumption) × (Calorific value per unit of fuel ] ] ÷

3.6 (GJ/MWh)] + ∑ (Heat consumption ÷ 3.6 (GJ/MWh) (including the calculated performance of U.S. offices, which is partially estimated). Calorific values per unit of electricity/fuel refer to those specified in the Law

Energy and CO2

Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with Global Warming*.

Development and design

• CO2 emission (t-CO2) = [ (Purchased electricity) × (CO2 emission factor) + ∑ [(Fuel consumption) × (Fuel CO2 emission factor)] + ∑ [(Heat consumption) × (Heat CO2 emission factor)] ]

Domestic CO2 emission factors refer to those specified in the Law Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with Global Warming* while overseas electricity CO2 emission factors are based on the "CO2

Emissions from Fuel Combustion 2019 (IEA)."

Waste

• Amount of waste generated from Sekisui House (non-consolidated basis) head office including consolidated subsidiary offices in the same building

• Energy consumption and CO2 emissions at Sekisui House's (non-consolidated basis) five domestic factories, and the Ingleburn Manufacturing and Quality Control Centre (Australia)

• Beginning with FY2021, the unit for energy consumption (total) has changed from GJ to MWh. Energy consumption (GJ) = [ (Purchased electricity) + ∑ [(Fuel consumption) × (Calorific value per unit of fuel) ] ÷ 3.6 (GJ/MWh).

Energy and CO2

Calorific values per unit of fuel refer to those specified in the Law Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with Global Warming.*

• CO2 emission (t-CO2) = [ (Purchased electricity) × (CO2 emission factor) + ∑ [(Fuel consumption) × (Fuel CO2 emission factor)] ]. CO2 emission factors for electricity and fuel refer to those specified in the Law

Factory production

Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with Global Warming while electricity CO2 emission factors at the Ingleburn Manufacturing and Quality Control Centre (Australia) refer to those specified in the

"CO2 Emissions from Fuel Combustion 2019 (IEA)."

Waste

• Amount of waste generated from Sekisui House's (non-consolidated basis) five domestic factories

• Electricity, fuel and other inputs that Sekisui House (non-consolidated basis), Sekiwa Construction (15 companies), and Konoike Construction use in construction and civil engineering work. Data for Konoike

Construction include demolition work associated with construction and civil engineering work and discrete demolition projects.

• Beginning with FY2021, the unit for energy consumption (total) has changed from GJ to MWh. Energy consumption (GJ) = [ (Energy consumption mentioned above) × (Calorific value per unit of energy use) ] ÷

3.6 (GJ/MWh)

Energy and CO2

• Energy consumption and CO2 emissions resulting from construction by Konoike Construction refer to those resulting from domestic construction/civil engineering work it supervises (excluding demolition work).

The fuel consumption by construction machinery is calculated from the number of operating days of construction machinery using the Japan Construction Machinery and Construction Association's loss table for

Construction

construction machinery. Energy consumption and CO2 emissions are only estimated for small-scale construction work at contracted amounts of less than ¥100 million.

• CO2 emissions are calculated by multiplying the energy consumption mentioned above by the CO2 emission factor for each energy type.

(CO2 emissions resulting from commuting by construction employees of partner companies that have no capital relationship with the Group are based on FY2020 results and included in Scope 3, Category 7.)

• Amount of waste generated from new construction, maintenance and remodeling by Sekisui House (non-consolidated basis), 15 Sekiwa Construction companies and Sekisui House Remodeling.

Waste

• Amount of waste generated from Konoike Construction's domestic construction/civil engineering work. Data for Konoike Construction include demolition work associated with construction and civil engineering

work and discrete demolition projects.

Demolition

Waste

• Amount of waste generated from demolition of houses and buildings by Sekisui House (non-consolidated basis), 15 Sekiwa Construction companies and Sekisui House Remodeling.

  • Calorific value per unit of energy and CO2 emission factor are based on the Law Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with Global Warming. "Emission Factors by Electric Utility Operator" announced by the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry on January 7, 2022 and partially revised on February 17, 2022) are used for the emission factors for specified emitters.
