In fiscal 2018, which was the last year of the Sixth Medium-Term Environmental Plan period, energy conservation activities progressed as planned, but due to the drought in the region where hydroelectric power plants were located, the amount of renewable energy generated was low and the intensity was below the initial target. On the other hand, the final disposal amount of waste decreased much more than the target, and the amount of PRTR substances did not reach the target, but was reduced from the previous fiscal year.
According to the Seventh Medium-Term Environmental Plan which starts in fiscal 2019, we strive to innovate systematic production processes in conjunction with our management plan, Denka Value-Up, to further promote energy saving and to reduce environmentally hazardous substances.
