Scope:
I．Global promotion items: All business facilities in Japan and overseas
II．GEMS Objectives: Integrated ISO14001-certified organizational body with SANYO Electric Co., Ltd. being the main entity.

*1 "Carbon neutral" is a term defined by Sanyo.

*2 ◎: Target achieved at least one year ahead of schedule.○ : Target achieved as scheduled. X: Target not achieved as scheduled.

*3 Target was revised upward during the period, as substantial over-achievement was anticipated.

*4 The 2006 CO₂ emission factor specified by the Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan (0.410kg-CO₂/kWh, the value for the target base year) was used for calculating CO₂ emissions in Japan. For overseas CO₂ emissions however, the 2003 emission factors by country released by the Japan Electrical Manufacturers’ Association were used.

*5 The calculation of CO₂ emissions per basic unit of production output for fiscal 2009-2011 was performed using CO₂ emissions per basic unit of production output (= CO₂ emissions ÷ [total production ÷ the Bank of Japan Corporate Goods Price Index])

*6 Still in planning

*7 Standards still being revised

*8 See page entitled, “Prevention of Global Warming in Production Process”

*9 See page entitled, “Making All Products Environmentally Conscious”
