KOKUSAI ELECTRIC CORPORATION (President and CEO: Kazunori Tsukada; Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan) has joined the GX Future League.
The GX Future League was established in April 2026 by inheriting the functions of the former GX League and TCFD Consortium, with the aim of creating demand for GX*1 and reducing greenhouse gas (hereinafter, “GHG”) emissions across the entire supply chain through public-private collaboration, regardless of industry, business model, or emissions volume.
Our group has been advancing initiatives to reduce our environmental footprint, including receiving Net-Zero*2 certification from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)*3, which recognized that our GHG emissions reduction targets are science-based. By joining the GX Future League, we will further strengthen our efforts to reduce GHG emissions across our group’s value chain.
Under the corporate slogan “Technology & Tai-wa for Tomorrow,” we will pursue economic, environmental, and social values from both business and ESG (resolving environmental and social issues and strengthening governance) aspects, with the aim of contributing to the achievement of SDGs and realizing a sustainable society and our group’s sustainable development.
