Environmental Data

dip has set the goal of achieving a 100% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2025 and maintaining this level thereafter. To this end, we have worked to reduce electricity consumption (energy conservation) and introduce renewable energy. As a result, we have achieved carbon neutrality for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025.

Data on Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions

Data on GHG emissions resulting from dip’s business activities are as follows.

[Special remarks on the environmental data]

■Calculation period:
All fiscal years: From March 1 to the end of the following February

■Scope of calculation:
・Scope 1・2: Offices, recreation facilities and data center as of the end of February
  Break down: FY’17/2: 33 offices; FY’18/2: 36 offices; FY’19/2: 36 offices; FY’20/2: 38 offices; 
        FY’21/2: 38 offices; FY’22/2: 36 offices; FY’23/2: 40 offices; FY’24/2: 40 offices; 
・Scope3:dip Corporation (consolidated)

* Reason for change in number of offices: Addition or closure of office
* Recreation facilities and data center are included in the scope of calculation for Scope 1 and 2 from the fiscal year ended February 28, 2023.
* DIP America inc., is excluded from the scope of calculation because because it is not a consolidated company in the financial reporting and its GHG emissions are immaterial.

■Targeted activities:
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions from Business Activities
 Scope 1
  Use of city gas in offices and recreation facilities
 Scope 2
  Use of electricity in offices, recreation facilities, and data center
 Scope 3
  Category 1 (Purchased goods and services)
   Server operation, service use, procurement of promotional materials, etc.
  Category 2 (Capital goods)
   Expansion and purchase of equipment, software development / acquisition, etc.
  Category 3 (Fuel and energy-related activities not included in Scope 1 or Scope 2)
   Activities covered by Scope 1 and 2 (Offices, recreation facilities, data center)
  Category 4 (Upstream transportation and distribution)
   Communication costs (postal and courier services)
  Category 5 (Waste generated in operations)
   Waste plastic and scrap metal
  Category 6 (Business travel)
   Business trips, business transportation expenses, etc.
  Category 7 (Employee commuting)
   Employee commuting expenses, etc.

*Target activities are selected based on the actual control approach.

■Calculation method:
・GHG emissions (CO2 equivalent) are calculated by referring to the GHG Protocol.
・Emission Factors for Calculation
  -List of Calculation Methods and Emission Factors for Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Calculation, Reporting and Publication System
  -Emission Coefficients Database for Corporate Supply Chain Accounting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
・The following are other references in the calculations.
  -Manual for Calculating and Reporting Greenhouse Gas Emissions
  -Basic Guidelines for Calculating GHG Emissions throughout the Supply Chain
  -Q&A Frequently asked questions and answers on supply chain emissions calculation

*Emission factor for electricity consumption at overseas facility is based on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) electricity emission factors.
