- Role of joint conferences with the Expert Committee for Follow-up to the Voluntary

Action Plan on the Environment, Global Environment Committee, Central Environment Council

The Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan that was revised in March, 2008 establishes the

implementation of regular follow-ups of voluntary action plans by related government councils as a system for evaluating and verifying these plans. Among the objectives of these follow-ups is to promote measures to reduce emissions by individual industries and to steadily implement actions to reduce emissions toward achievement of Japan’s commitment to reduce its emissions by 6% under the Kyoto Protocol.

At METI, in accordance with this plan, evaluation and verification of voluntary action plans for 41 individual industries under its jurisdiction based on actual results in FY2010 have just been completed by its seven working groups (WG).

The “Joint Conference between the Global Environmental Subcommittee, Environmental Committee, Industrial Structure Council and the Expert Committee for Follow-up to the Voluntary Action Plan on the Environment, Global Environment Committee, Central Environment Council” is the parent organization of the working groups within the voluntary action plan evaluation/verification system. This Joint Conference is charged with receiving reports on the results of deliberations conducted by each working group, and with arranging the results of evaluation/verification of the 2011 Voluntary Action Plan and issues to be tackled in the future.

Extract from the Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan (revised in March 2008)

Chapter 3, Section 2 1 (1) 1) A. Efforts in the Commercial Sector (Manufacturers, etc.) (a) Promotion and Enhancement of Voluntary Action Plans by Industry

In the industrial and energy-conversion sectors, in 1997 the Japan Business Federation (hereinafter “Nippon Keidanren”) took the lead in formulating the Voluntary Action Plan on the Environment, and established the target of limiting carbon

dioxide emission in FY2010 to under ±0 of FY1990 levels. Moreover, in addition to the Nippon Keidanren Voluntary Action Plan on the Environment, individual industries under the Nippon Keidanren umbrella as well as non-Nippon Keidanren member industries are formulating plans for reducing emissions of greenhouse gases in all sectors, including the business/commercial sector and transport sector (hereinafter, these individual industry-level plans are referred to as “voluntary action plans”). These voluntary action plans now cover approximately 80% of the industrial and energy conversion sectors and approximately 50% of all sectors.

As of the end of March 2008, 50 industries in the industrial sector, 32 industries in the business/commercial sector, 17 industries in the transport sector, and four industries in the energy-conversion sector have established targets that include quantitative targets. These targets are being evaluated and verified by related councils and other bodies.

(Omission)

In order for Japan to achieve its reduction commitment under the Kyoto Protocol, it is extremely important for industry to advance efforts to limit emissions, including efforts to improve energy intensity and carbon dioxide emission intensity, so that the targets of these voluntary action plans in the industrial and energy-conversion sectors are achieved. Therefore, concerning the targets and content of voluntary action plans of industry, while taking into account the fact that the voluntary nature of the plans must be respected, it is also important that they meet social demands through

a) New formulation of voluntary action plans in industries for which plans have yet to be prepared,b) Quantification of targets in areas in which plan targets are qualitative,c) Implementation of rigorous government-led plan evaluation and verification, andd) Raising of targets when the current situation already exceeds target levels.It is also important that the targets of the Nippon Keidanren Voluntary Action Plan on Environment be fully achieved, and

that individual industrial classifications are encouraged to make active efforts toward achievement of their own voluntary targets.

In order to improve the transparency, reliability, and probability of target achievement of voluntary action plans, the government will implement regular follow-ups through related councils as a system for evaluating and verifying these plans.

In addition to standpoints presented above (a to d), evaluation/verification by the government will be based on the following perspectives:

- Given that the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol is a five-year period that extends from 2008 to 2012, establishment of voluntary action plan targets than can be achieved during an average period of five years shall be encouraged.

- Maximum effort to indicate concretely the content of future measures to make up for shortfalls in target achievement (including application of the Kyoto Mechanisms) as well as effects of these measures shall be encouraged. Whenever possible, presentation of concrete forecasts of amount of credit acquisition and acquisition timing shall be promoted with regard to businesses that apply the Kyoto Mechanisms when target achievement appears difficult. Moreover, when acquired credit is to be applied to target achievement, transfer to the government’s account shall be free of charge.

- Confirmation and review of division of responsibility among the companies that make up each industry shall be encouraged in order to enhance the probability of target achievement.

- Given that the Kyoto Protocol targets total emission of greenhouse gases, active study of use of carbon dioxide emissions as a performance indicator by industries that only use intensity shall be encouraged.

- For carbon dioxide emissions of businesses that participate in voluntary action plans, even more active information disclosure that includes utilization of emissions data of individual business establishments based on the Law Concerning the Promotion

of Measures to Cope with Global Warming and qualitative presentation of examples of leading efforts shall be promoted.

- Given that fundamental reinforcement of measures in the business/commercial sector, household sector, and transport sector is required, Nippon Keidanren will encourage quick, comprehensive, and cross-industry establishment of targets for reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the offices of participating industries and member companies, and will likewise encourage promotion of approaches that include expanded use of environmental household bookkeeping in the households of member companies’ employees.

- Maximum effort to quantify industry efforts in the business/commercial and transport sectors as well as contribution to emissions reduction by the consumer and transport sectors, including quantification that is based on product LCA, shall be encouraged.

- International comparisons that are derived from highly reliable data as well as active external communication of approaches that are based on voluntary action plans shall be encouraged in all industries. Such actions will be for the purpose of disseminating information on volunteer action plan-based approaches to both international interests and domestic consumers in easy-to-understand forms.

II. Results of FY 2011 Evaluation and Verification Utilization

1. Target achievement

(1) Evaluation based on actually emitted amount (hereinafter referred to as actual emissions) Evaluation was made based on actual emissions, where actual emission factors were used concerning power emission factors. In this evaluation, it was found that 27 industries among 41 industries achieved their gargets. In the last fiscal year, 27 industries achieved their targets, as with the previous year.

(2) Evaluation based on emissions after start using Kyoto Mechanism Credits For those who try to achieve their targets of voluntary actions plans, it is allowed to make use of Kyoto Mechanism Credits and so forth. In cases where, for example, emission factors reflecting credits or the like were used regarding power emission factors, 29 industries among 41 industries achieved their targets. Compared with cases where actual emission factors were used, two more industries were successful. These industries were able to achieve the targets because of improvement in power emission factors that was brought by the use of Kyoto Mechanism Credits.

Target-achieving industries 29 industries (target achievement rate: 70.7%)Target-missing industries 12 industries Total 41 industries

<For reference> In case of fixed emission factor (3.05 t-CO2/10,000 kWh) As a result of performing an evaluation using a fixed power emission factor, it was found that 29 industries achieved their targets, as with using an emission factor reflecting credits, etc.

(3) Overall outline

According to the results in FY2010, the number of industries achieving their targets decreased by one from the last fiscal year. This was because although the industries continued efforts such as technological innovation, introduction of energy-saving facilities and high-efficiency facilities, fuel conversion, and improvement in facility administration, the activities decreased due to sharp economic downturn in the second half of fiscal 2008 followed by slight economic recovery. Twelve industries could not achieve their targets. It is important to keep encouraging these target-missing industries to achieve the targets. Among the twelve industries that failed to achieve the targets, 11 industries had adopted emission intensity to formulate their targets. It is still wanted that they keep improving their efficiency even in such slight economic recovery as fiscal 2010.

2. Transition of CO2 emissions

(1) Actual emissions Concerning transition of actual CO2 emissions, activities decreased due to sharp economic downturn in the second half of fiscal 2008 followed by slight economic recovery, and emissions increased from the previous fiscal year in many industries. The total emissions also increased by 23,946 thousand tons.

(3) Overall outline

In comparison with the results of FY2009, all sectors increased their emissions in terms of actual emissions. In addition, emissions using Kyoto Mechanism Credits also increased from FY2009 in all sectors. On the other hand, only the industry sector reduced the emissions from those of the base year. In total, however, emissions were reduced by over 30 million tons. The industry sector had been making efforts to reduce the emissions according to its voluntary action plans. Their efforts should be appreciated. It is important to continue appropriately encouraging individual sectors to reduce the emissions.

4. Perspectives of evaluation/verificationBased on items identified in the past evaluations and verifications, further evaluation and verification were made from the following points of view.

(1) Basic standpoint � The Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan states that Japan’s reduction commitments under the Kyoto Protocol

can be achieved if every one of the nation’s citizens does his or her best to pursue policies that are based on the plan. For this purpose, improving probability of target achievement in the voluntary action plans of individual industries is an important part.

� The following items, identified through evaluation and verification, have repeatedly been pointed out, and the next fiscal year will be the final fiscal year. For these reasons, if these matters cannot be addressed without reasonable grounds, it would affect the evaluation of the efforts in the form of voluntary action plans, and therefore, positive responses must be given where possible. Then, concerning matters difficult to address in a short period, it is necessary to take sufficient actions as the tasks in the voluntary efforts in fiscal 2013 onward.

(2) Major specific standpoints

1) Improving probability of target achievement for industries that have yet to achieve their targets For industries that have yet to achieve their target levels at the current time (FY2010 performance), we will

evaluate the range of their non-achievement of targets (i.e., the intensity and amounts required for achievement), and, wherever possible, identify the content and effect of future measures to compensate for their non-achievement in quantitative and specific terms. As for industries utilizing the Kyoto Mechanism Credits, in cases wherein the achievement of targets is unlikely, we ask them to present forecasts of the amount of credits to be purchased and the timing of said purchases as specifically as possible.

2) Evaluation with the power emission factor fixed

To appropriately evaluate the emission efforts of each industry, the emissions and intensity with a power emission factor being fixed are evaluated.

3) Setting targets that are combined with CO2 emissions In light of the fact that the Kyoto Protocol targets CO2 emissions, industries that define their targets in terms of

CO2 emission intensity only should also study the use of CO2 emissions as a performance indicator. Industries that set new targets in terms of CO2 emissions will be evaluated positively.

4) Relations with Global Warming Act As for CO2 emissions, which are a precondition for evaluation of each industry’s voluntary action plan,

industry-by-industry formulation and management is, in principle, being conducted. On the other hand, according to the mandatory greenhouse gas accounting and reporting system based on the Act on Promotion of Measures to Cope with Global Warming (Global Warming Act), all corporations (business operators) whose emissions are above a certain level are required to make their CO2 emissions public.

Based on this, the evaluation and verification of voluntary action plans, the industries are required by the Global Warming Act to provide CO2 emissions for all business establishments on a list of corporations (business establishments) participating in the voluntary action plans. Industries that have actively disclosed information will be commended.

Moreover, we will identify the proportion of business establishments covered by the Act Concerning the Rational Use of Energy (the “Energy Saving Act”) and the Global Warming Act among those corporations participating in the voluntary action plans for each industry.

5) Raising target levels of target-achieving industries

As for industries whose current performance exceeds the level of the quantitative targets set (29 industries), we encourage them to raise their targets by considering economic situations and industry-specific circumstances.

5. Evaluation of each evaluation/verification perspective(1) Improving probability of target achievement for industries that have yet to achieve their targets

Industries that have not achieved their target levels have been asked, from the standpoint of enhancing probability of target achievement, to give quantitative explanations about the content and effects of their future measures (including utilization of the Kyoto Mechanism) to compensate for shortcomings in meeting their targets (i.e., intensities and amounts required for achievement). Looking at target-missing industries covered by Fiscal 2011 evaluation/verification, as a whole, effectiveness percentages of future measures against shortfalls are demonstrated, and these industries are judged as being able to achieve their targets if steady progress is achieved in implementing measures mentioned in their voluntary action plans. (Some industries have named the impacts of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the subsequent Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant accident as an uncertain factor in achieving their targets. Therefore, it is necessary to keep an eye on the state of their efforts (see IV. 9. on page 64).)

In this context, the Federation of Electric Power Companies and the Power Producers and Suppliers each submitted a report on depreciation of the Kyoto Mechanism Credits etc. Depreciation of the Kyoto Mechanism Credits by electric power companies would affect the target achievements by other industries and the increase in the probability of the achievements, from the viewpoint of increasing the probability of target achievement and through improvement of power emission factors. On the other hand, the Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan indicated “260 million tons” as the amount of Kyoto Mechanism Credits, etc. planned to be used in FY2008 to FY2012, in its evaluation and verification in the last fiscal year. However, this field was left blank this fiscal year. This was because the federation “could not forecast it since the supply-demand outlook in the future was uncertain.” However, they should take appropriate responses based on the credit depreciation in power emission factor as described above and the contents of various arguments on future energy policies. Further, results of domestic credit depreciation were also reported this fiscal year. In the Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan, it is aimed to further improve domestic credits as a measure to reduce emissions at small and medium-sized companies. Therefore, it is expected that domestic credits will be actively used in various industries in the future.

In addition, amounts of Kyoto Mechanism Credits etc. planned to be acquired (used) were also reported. Thirteen industries*, which was a larger number of industries compared with the last fiscal year's 12 industries, announced that they were going to study utilization of Kyoto Mechanism Credits etc. if they would have difficulty achieving their targets.

(*3) At the Resources and Energy WG for this fiscal year, the federation reported: “we cannot forecast it since the supply-demand outlook in the future is uncertain.”

(2) Evaluation in cases where the power emission factor is fixed

In this fiscal 2009, it was started to make evaluations in cases where the power emission factor is fixed. The purpose of these evaluations was to appropriately evaluate the efforts made by individual sectors to reduce the emissions.

There were 17 industries, among 41 industries, that increased the amount of their activities compared with the base year. Of them, eight industries reduced the amount of emissions by considerably improving the intensity. As for the other nine industries, they increased the amount of emissions; but all industries improved the performance in terms of intensity.

On the other hand, all of the 22 industries, which reduced the amount of their activities, reduced the amount of their emissions. In addition, 15 industries showed improvement in terms of intensity, too.

Consequently, a major number of industries, including the industries having reduced the amount of their activities, were successful to improve the intensity. Their voluntary actions plans as a whole should be given positive evaluation after all efforts having been made so far to reduce emissions.

(3) Setting targets that are combined with CO2 emissions

In light of the fact that the Kyoto Protocol’s target is CO2 emissions, industries that define their targets only in terms of CO2 emission intensity have been asked to also study the use of CO2 emissions as a performance indicator. There was no industry that set a new CO2 emission target this fiscal year. It will be important to encourage the setting of targets that are combined with CO2 emissions, based wherever possible on quantitative production output forecasts.

(4) Relations with Global Warming Act As for CO2 emissions, etc., which are preconditions for evaluation of each industry’s voluntary action plan,

industry-by-industry formulation and management are, in principle, being conducted.

Since fiscal 2007, industries have been asked to include CO2 emissions in their list of corporations (business-establishment level) participating in the voluntary actions plans in line with the mandatory greenhouse gas accounting and reporting system under the Global Warming Act. Outlined below is the status of submission of such lists pertaining to 37 industries, apart from four industries* that reported that they have no business establishments subject to the Act.

Twenty-four industries did not state CO2 emissions by business establishment or corporation in the list for reasons that

include difficulty in collecting data due to a large number of business establishments. In the future, it is desirable that they should state CO2 emissions from the viewpoint of securing transparency.

It should be noted that the number of business establishments covered by the Global Warming Act in the voluntary action plans, out of all industries participating in voluntary action plans, was also identified. (Refer to attachment “1 Proportion of Business Establishments covered by the Global Warming Act out of those Corporations Participating in the Voluntary Actions Plans.”)

○ Submission of Lists of Corporations Participating in the Voluntary Action Plans in each IndustryNote: The figures shown in parenthesis following the names of industries represent the number of business establishments participating in voluntary action plans.

(5) Raising target levels of target-achieving industries In the evaluation/verification for FY2010, one out of the 29 industries that have already achieved their targets raised

their targets. The other 28 industries did not raise their target levels because economic perspective was not clear or for some other reasons.

(Chart 2)

The additional reduction effect of target-raising (one industry) in the evaluation and verification of FY2011 was estimated to be about 390 thousand tons/year as a trial calculation at present.

6. Minutes: [Main matters discussed (including those common to several industries)] ・Working groups of this form serve as an opportunity for presenting our

messages to the population. In that sense, we should radically make these discussions open to the public.

・Measures taken by consumers are important. Basically, the purpose is to

reduce total emissions, not to reduce emission intensity. The purpose would not be achieved without measures by consumers. Inclusion of reform of the energy supply structure must also be taken into account. → The Energy and Environment Council of the government, representing the

whole government, is working to study the ideal forms of measures by

consumers and of the supply structure and system. ・Things have completely changed since the Fukushima accident. Due to the

accident at the Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Station, our country’s measures to cope with global warming and CO2 reduction plan have been radically damaged.

・Although it is nuclear energy that has a decisive factor in import of emission

credits, it would take much time. The basic stance in coping with global warming is to seek a resolution in the long run. The current circumstances are beyond our control.

・Under these new circumstances, it is necessary to firmly discuss again how to

approach COP 18 and how to shape the organizational elements of voluntary action plans by the summer next year. → At present, there is a large difference between the positions of countries on

the next framework, and it will take much time until the framework is structured. The countries share the understanding that it is important for them to individually make reduction efforts based partly on the Cancun agreement made last year.

・If the actual conditions of industries and their opinions were reflected in policies

for energy and environment, such as review of the Energy and Environment Council and the Basic Energy Plan, it would lead to a more effective plan. → “Safety” and “security” are keywords in addition to the existing “3 Es.” In

that sense, the best mix of energy sources is important.

・If the consumption increases, intensity will increase, and if the consumption decreases, intensity will decrease. Rather than the apparent intensity based on change in consumption, we prefer a system under which emission reductions through industrial efforts are recognizable.

[Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan] ・The intensity result in the first half has already been available. What will be the

perspective for 2011? → The perspective for 2011 is not clear.

・If dispersed power were promoted, the existing Ten Power Company Structure may be reviewed. What do you think about it? → Since this issue has been studied at a national level, we cannot comment

on this.

・It is very difficult to increase the number of nuclear power stations as the power industry desires. We would like you to think about the future in order to prevent the intensity from rising under the circumstances where the number of nuclear power stations is not increased. → We would like to regain public confidence, and work to resume operation of

nuclear power stations to generate power. Nuclear power stations will remain a very important power source in the future, and should be among the alternatives.

・Concerning the planned acquisition of credits in the future, do you intend to

withdraw the acquisition of 260 million t-CO2 planned at the time of follow-ups in the last fiscal year? → Since the prospect is uncertain, it is unclear whether the acquisition will increase or decrease. ・In a morning edition of newspapers on the 8th, Tokyo Electric Power Company

announced that it would review its 20% emission reduction target by fiscal 2012. What kind of impact will this have on the Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan’s achievement of its target? → Although we stated that it would be difficult to achieve our target, we did not

announce that we would review the target.

・We would like you to consider making a non-conventional, positive proposal as a power supplier. → We have been making every possible effort including thermal power

generation and renewable energy. We would be willing to accept your support such as technological development if any.

[Petroleum Association of Japan] ・In the petroleum industry, the demand peaked off around 1997. Despite that,

operators are continuously making energy-saving efforts.

[Power Producers and Suppliers] ・Does the change in the combination of different types of power plants

increase the intensity from 0.48 to 0.54 or 0.64? You should properly provide evidence.

→ We introduced highly efficient thermal power plants and new energy sources from 2002 to 2010. As a result of the effect of this, we achieved 0.48. If this effect did not continue in the future, and given change in the combination of different types of power plants resulting from the demand growth, the intensity would increase to 0.64. If a similar effect to that in the past continued, the intensity would be 0.54. We aim at 0.51 by further deepening our efforts.

Target-missing industries: None 6. Minutes: [Main matters discussed (including those common to several industries)] ○The industry should press ahead with “horizontal deployment” through

information exchange and knowledge sharing among industry groups and “vertical deployment” through the supply chain. We hope that such efforts unique to Japan will be acknowledged domestically and internationally, leading to strengthening the competitive edge. ○There is a difference between factor analyses by industry groups. You should

steadily analyze the factors leading to achieving the CO2 reduction targets. In addition to the intended effect of the measures, in some cases

achievements may have been made thanks to incidental external factors. If no room were left to further reduce CO2 through continuation of existing measures when moving to the next step, it would be necessary to clarify the required new countermeasure technology. ○Instead of thoughtlessly responding only with the industry’s economic

efficiency and superiority in the CO2 issue, you should also take into account the energy security aspect while studying the international situation and the energy trend in the future. ○Given the future, you should now consider promoting investments in new

energy sources. ○Since we may not be able to expect an emission decrease in CO2 intensity

through nuclear power generation in the future, you should have a harsher view. Each industry should express opinions on the issues of nuclear power generation and global warming. ○You must not overvalue the effect. Considering the whole Japan, you should

not overvalue the effect for the sake of our country. ○It seems that dissemination of opinions and information from each industry to

society and the general public is insufficient. The website contents may also need to be more creative. ○In the paper and cement industries, has any woodchips or sewage sludge

been affected by radioactive cesium as a result of the Fukushima incident following the great earthquake? → [Japan Paper Association] In some regions, we combust them using

biomass boilers in cooperation with local governments. We need to collaborate with local governments in coping with problems such as treatment of waste. → [Japan Cement Association] Following the earthquake and the Fukushima

incident, we have talked with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism many times, and the ministries have suggested that the acceptable cesium levels would be 100 becquerels/kg or less at the concrete stage and approximately 200 becquerels/kg at the cement stage. Based on their suggestions, and on the major premise that we produce safe products, the industry has started to accept sewage sludge with low concentration as a raw material of cement. The cesium level of incineration ash produced by burning sewage sludge is generally considerably high, and we cannot accept such incineration ash. Currently, we accept dehydrated sludge or dewatered sludge within safe limits.

[Japan Paper Association] ○The member companies probably include a considerable number of

companies that have their own forests domestically and internationally. How are they planning to cooperate with the forestry sector in transport and pickup, including the utilization of energy from materials remaining in their forests? → The paper industry takes the stance that priority should be given first to

material utilization among the uses of forest resources. Even forest thinnings and wood refuses should be used as material first. Priority should be given to cascading, in which material once used in some form is finally used as a fuel. The industry places priority to material utilization, including company-owned forests. ○ How are the demand for and the prices of used paper expected to change in

the Asian market including China in the future. Does the industry expect that the target values will be secured? → In these days, considerable amounts of used paper are exported to China (approx. 4 million tons per year; accounting for more than 10% of the total paper production in Japan). In China, there must be used paper that is domestically produced. Since 2009, the industry has conducted seminars for people representing the Chinese paper industry or the Chinese government on the used paper circulating system in Japan including know how in order to encourage China to preferentially use such domestically produced used paper. [Japan Cement Association] ○ You mentioned that concrete paving would enable CO2 reduction at the

vehicle travel stage. We would appreciate if you could also provide information such as evaluation in life cycle. → Our association has also conducted an investigation on that. The result of

the investigation shows that although concrete paving would be more costly than asphalt paving in the initial investment stage, asphalt paving requires surface repair approximately every 10 years. Therefore, if such a repair work were performed once or twice, the total life cycle cost of concrete paving would be less costly. Since road paving works are conducted in the form of public projects in many cases, our association is approaching the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and prefectural governments. ○ You seem to participate in the examination of emissions as a contribution to

the commercial sector. Other industries quantify this and publicize the result.

What kind of progress have your efforts to show your contribution domestically and internationally through quantification been made? → We have continued to study the supply chain, etc. When the figures are

available, we would like to do publicity in various ways. ○ As you accept wastes generated due to the earthquake disaster, which have not previously been assumed, what kind of impact would it have on the CO2, etc. in the future? → We have already started to accept such wastes, and in one case, rotten fish

was present in a cement kiln. Cement plants in the Tohoku region receive such wastes. Since rubble contains salt from seawater or the like in many cases, our future task is to find out how to remove toxic substances and salt from wastes and covert them to raw materials. The cement industry intends to contribute to disposal of rubble by accepting it as much as possible.

[Japan Textile Finishers’ Association] ○ In your explanation of dyes, you mentioned that imports represent 95%, and

suggested that the industry worries about the safety issue in the future. What is the safety issue concerning dyes? Is that a problem concerning pigments or the like? → Since the November 11 edition of a trade paper The Senken reported that

the imports rose to 96% in the past ten years, we have not exaggerated the figure. Safety issues may not be a subject matter of this WG. But, what we mention here is concerning the safety of dyestuff and pigments we use.

[Flat Glass Manufacturers Association of Japan] ○ As various industries have started to review the consolidation of production

bases against recent risks such as earthquakes, will your industry further consolidate production bases in the future? → Our association’s member companies have been considerably globalized,

and each operate 50 to 60 kilns worldwide. Therefore, the production consolidation in the future will be sought through collaboration with not only domestic plants, but also with plants in the world including Asia. In particular, for glass for automobiles or solar cells, production consolidation will probably be linked also with globalization of Japanese companies.

[Japan Sanitary Equipment Industry Association] ○ This industry has been excellent because both intensity emissions have

significantly been reduced, and it achieved decoupling of economic growth

and environmental burden this time. We would like your association to communicate such efforts to Asian countries including China.

[Japan Prefabricated Construction Suppliers & Manufacturers Association] ○ Products from this industry accumulate wealth that are locked in for a very

long period as social infrastructure including smart houses in the future. Therefore, we would like you to appeal to domestic and overseas markets while producing effects not only as production process but also as subsequent social infrastructure.

Shopping Centers, Japan Department Stores Association, Meeting of Large Household Appliance Retailers, Japan DIY Industry Association, Japan Association of Chain Drug Stores, あand Japan Leasing Association

Target-missing industries: Japan Franchise Association, Japan Information Technology Services Industry Association, and Japan Foreign Trade Council

6. Minutes: [Main matters discussed (including those common to several industries)] ・Partly due to difference in the year of participation, some associations were modest in

target setting, while some were extremely ambitious. ・For groups whose results exceeded the targets, the target levels should be raised. → While many large-scale shopping centers are actively working on CO2 reduction,

small-scale facilities have difficulty in making improvements. Therefore, we would like to maintain the targets unchanged although we will make efforts such as provision of support from the association.

→ Although the DIY Industry Association has maintained the targets unchanged due to various reasons, we would like to consider raising them in the future.

→ The Meeting of Large Household Appliance Retailers would like to maintain the targets unchanged for reasons such as the fact that store-opening plans, etc. cannot be shared between different companies and that the future energy policy is unclear. However, we intend to steadily work on our efforts also in the future.

・Even though you do not have data for directly making international comparison, there

may be data that can be referred to. ・Even in the same industry, the conditions vary with various business categories or

locations, etc. You should compare figures after categorization. → For shopping centers, we performed analysis by categories such as suburb type

(open/closed), station building, underground mall, under elevated railway tracks, building complex, and told each company their position.

・The Department Stores Association’s benchmark formulation by scales is excellent. It

may be impossible for all industries to keep pace with the top runner. Why not realistically setting the target at around the top 1/4?

・The mileage per store presented by the Franchise Association serves as a good index

because it enables us to visualize their efforts. We recommend having them compete with each other not only in average value but also benchmark. We would also like to compare this industry with others.

・The DIY Industry Association specifically stated what should be done in physical

distribution (order equalization/optimization, number of delivery vehicles, decrease in small-lot deliveries, decrease in returns). The streamlining of physical distribution greatly contributes to reducing the environmental load of the whole supply chain, and therefore, should be quantified as a credit to retailing.

・The industry should utilize information on support measures of local governments,

ministries/agencies, Energy Conservation Center, Japan, etc. by disseminating it to companies. The Bureau of Economy, Trade and Industry has prepared a pamphlet on such support measures. The Tokyo Government is also willing to provide support, will welcome your consultation.

・ Industry groups should commend companies/offices that are excellent in

environmental efforts and publicize them. ・What kinds of complaints did you receive from customers about the temperature setting

and lighting in the power-saving this summer? → Since we steadily conducted publicity, there were only few complaints. There was

even a case where store staff asked the store manager to lower the cooling temperature out of fear that customers may make complaints.

→ Because customers are sensitive to air-conditioning, we did not adjust the cooling to the extent possible, but thinned out lights and reduced the number of available elevator cars. In some cases, customers complained about the increased brightness as a result of replacement to LED lights. Since LED lights do not generate much heat, the load on the air-conditioning was lowered more than expected.

→ At foods supermarkets, raising the set temperature of air-conditioning increased the load on the refrigerator/freezer cases, and energy conservation was not achieved as a result in some cases. Customers’ responses were: “hot” and “cold,” and “bright” and “dark.”

[Japan Franchise Association] ・Is the large difference in energy consumption between convenience stores with uniform

store structures due to lack of appropriate administration measures? → Since the headquarters replaces store equipment according to the investment

efficiency, the degree of energy conservation varies with the replacement timing. Franchise members properly administer energy-conservation measures because their efforts would lead to cost reduction. Each chain introduced LED lights and energy-saving devices in response to the government’s recent request for power-saving ahead of schedule.

[Japan Leasing Association] ・Can’t your members make a contribution with their core businesses? → We would like to provide support through utilization of the subsidy for energy-saving

device introduction in leasing, support for application for the eco-lease system, etc.

Target-achieving industries: Japan Automobile Manufacturers’ Association, Japan Auto-Body Industries Association, Japan Auto Parts Industries Association, and Japan Industrial Vehicles Association

6. Minutes: [Main matters discussed] ・Each industry achieved a great reduction in terms of total amount, and can be highly

evaluated. ・Evaluation in total amount and evaluation in intensity are both important. In addition,

evaluation in LCA is also important for automobiles, which have at large environmental load especially in the process of use.

・Concerning energy-saving investments, those with large investment amounts and small

CO2 reduction effects are probably made to increase productivity. Therefore, the effect on the running cost must be separated from the CO2 reduction effect.

・Many of the efforts for energy-saving measures have remained unchanged for a long

period, and efforts in new areas are very rare. Although the times are very tough, actively working on environmental measures would lead to a next step toward new growth.

[Japan Automobile Manufacturers’ Association and Japan Auto-Body Industries Association]

・We would like you to go further with the targets, or otherwise further reduce emissions. → This year, it is difficult to make an outlook prediction due to a combination of various

conditions such as the impacts of the great earthquake and the flooding in Thailand, and we cannot easily review the targets as this stage. However, we would like to further strive for continuous reductions.

・There must also be a difference with plants and car models. Since latest plants probably take highly-advanced measures, you should make your reporting more creative.

[Japan Auto Parts Industries Association] ・From a viewpoint of “contribution as a product,” it will also be important to have a

system to evaluate the contribution of advanced parts to improvement of fuel efficiency during travel.

→ Although it is very difficult to quantitatively evaluate how parts contribute to fuel efficiency improvement, we would like to find out what kind of contribution we can make in the future.

[Japan Industrial Vehicles Association] ・We would like you to actively promote education about users’ use of the idling stop

function, etc. → We will also ask users to make active efforts.

6. Minutes: [Main matters discussed] ・All industries made explanations on the basis of emission intensity. They should

set total emission reduction targets. → The electronics and electrical equipment industry has improved the CO2

intensity. In total emissions, we would like to contribute to the reduction at the product stage.

→ The bearing industry publicizes emissions in intensity, on which efforts to reduce emissions are reflected, since total emission reduction would directly lead to reduction of the production volume.

・You should indicate how much reduction would be changed if the contribution based on change in power factor were eliminated.

→ The electronics and electrical equipment industry used a constant factor 3.4 tCO2/10,000 kWh. Therefore, there would be no impact.

・Your explanation: “the intensity increased because the production activity became sluggish” does not make sense. You should organize your thoughts about that point.

・It seems time to study the reduction target for 5 or 10 years ahead. Tell us about the progress of your consideration of that point. → The electronics and electrical equipment industry generates CO2 in the

usage process tens to hundreds times more than in the production process. Therefore, we intend to, for example, contribute to standard framework building not only in the production process, but also in the field of products and services.

→ The industrial machinery industry is studying the course of direction in formulating items of future approaches. We would like to make specific contents fit the government’s target.

・Decision on whether to take emissions or intensity varies. However, intensity is more important from the viewpoint of compatibility with economic growth. → The industrial machinery industry is evaluating the emissions in intensity.

We would like to continue to perform evaluation in intensity. ・In term of CO2 intensity, the denominator represents an production turnout, and

therefore, it is difficult to determine whether a technological improvement has been made or simply an added value has been increased. You should properly specify what factor caused the figure to be changed. → The machine tool industry introduces case examples where companies

used the “Environmental Activity Manual,” and promotes horizontal deployment of progress at the production stage within the industry.

・In 2011, new factors: earthquake, strong Yen and power supply instability, were added. From the viewpoint of target probability, you should add whether you took into account the situation in 2011 when preparing the outlook. → In the construction machinery industry, the figure is expected to rise by 18%

in 2011 and approximately 11% in 2012. ・We would like each industry to show their ideas to make LCA effective. → The electronics and electrical equipment industry would like to make an

appeal, for example, by indicating our ideas in the next action plan. → The industrial machinery industry has not performed LCA from the

viewpoint of energy since the industry is subject to high-mix low-volume

production and build-to-order production. → In build-to-order production, operation is basically performed on a

one-on-one basis, and the customer is identifiable. Therefore, the calculation must easily be performed.

→ The machine tool industry sets a reduction target for each company and evaluates their scores so that they can achieve their targets, in order to raise their awareness of the issue.

・Next year, it is expected that the emission factor of electricity will be worsened due to shutdown of nuclear power plants. In addition to reduction efforts in terms of intensity, efforts to reduce total emissions must also be made.

・The next fiscal year will be the final year of target achievement. We would like you to deepen your measures while utilizing factor analysis for changes.

[Matters pointed out to the four electrical/electronics-related groups] ・If solar is introduced as a future measure, how much cost do you assume for

reducing one ton of CO2?→ Although we know that the payback period of solar is very long, we cannot

reply because we do not have data at hand. We will reply on a separate basis.

・CO2 emissions with electrical equipment are greater in the use stage than in the production stage. We would like you to specifically explain how you contribute to the reduction at the use stage in evaluating LCA, etc.

・Electrical products have become more and more energy-saving. However, at the same time, there is some criticism that products have become larger and more electrical appliances are used at households, and the actual power consumptions have increased as a result. We would like you to provide data for countering such criticism, and explain how the electronics and electrical equipment industry will respond to the increase in commercial CO2 emissions and contribute to the reduction. → For example, TV sets have become larger in screen size, but the annual

power consumption has drastically decreased from 2000. In addition, the CO2 emission reductions with air-conditioners, TV sets and refrigerators thanks to the effect of the Eco-Point Program for Green Home Appliances were 2.73 million tons in total. Thus, the effect of replacement purchases is very large.

・In formulating the 35% improvement in CO2 intensity, was there any

precondition such as technological innovation? ・The cost of 65,000 yen required to reduce CO2 by one ton is outstandingly

higher than ordinary carbon prices and marginal abatement costs. What definition did you use in the calculation? → The amount of reduced CO2 is divided by the investment amount of the

year. As the reduction margin has decreased, the investment amount is gradually increasing.

[Matters pointed out to the Japan Bearing Industrial Association] ・How much is the energy-saving effect of improving the performance of

bearings? → The energy-saving effect is calculated for each product using a bearing.

Therefore, it is impossible to present the energy-saving effect of bearing performance improvement in a unified manner.

[Matters pointed out to the Japan Society of Industrial Machinery Manufacturers] ・What is the status of new energy-related development, spread of sludge

incineration, in particular? → Since it involves sewage treatment, local governments have conducted it.

Sludge incineration has not spread much. We expect future introduction and spread.

・CO2 emissions through incineration of sewage sludge are very large. We would like you to present your efforts in the previous stage, namely the sewerage system. → At work sites of manufacturers, efforts such as extracting methane gas from

sludge produced at their sites by biologically treating it, then internally using the energy of the gas, are made.

・You stated that while the production turnout decreased between 2009 and 2010, the emissions were increased. You should properly analyze the cause and provide an explanation. → We will closely investigate it again.

[Matters pointed out to the Japan Construction Equipment Manufacturers’ Association] ・You stated that the effect of power-saving measures would be expected

between 2008 and 2012. Specifically what kind of effect do you expect?

→ We expect that the efficiency will increase through sales increase and steadily efforts such as gathering interested people from our member companies and holding a study session inviting an improvement manager engaging in advanced efforts as the lecture.

・You stated that the intensity drastically decreased in 2010 due to a heat wave. Was there any other cause? → As for 2010, the cause was a drop in production activity.

[Matter pointed out to the Japan Machine Tool Builder's Association] ・It is very important that you voluntarily publicize companies properly conducting

environmental activities, and urge companies not properly conducting such activities to make improvements, on behalf of the industry.

[Plan for implementing a low-carbon society] ・Although the direction is good, such efforts tend to be viewed by the public as

activities conducted conveniently for the industry. It is important to define how to secure transparency.

Target-missing industries: Japan Chemical Industry Association, Japanese Electric Wire & Cable Makers' Association, and Japan Copper and Brass Association

6. Minutes: [Main matters discussed (including those common to several industries)] ・Due to the power supply-demand problem in this summer, the substantive CO2

will increase because the CO2 emission intensity of power will be deteriorated even if the energy intensity is improved. Instead of the conventional way, you should make reduction efforts with new ideas that look ahead to 2013 onward. ・The target-missing groups should explain their opinions about future activities. → The Japan Chemical Industry Association would like to contribute to coping

with the global warming to a maximum extent by further pressing ahead with energy-saving reduction through independent efforts, instead of revising the outlook for 2008 to 2012, under the circumstances where the future of the economic instability in Europe is uncertain and unpredictable in addition to

external deterioration factors due to the earthquake. ・Drastic CO2 reduction through use of high-performance products is not limited

to Japan. If you desire to reduce CO2 on a global scale, you should argue from an international viewpoint instead of based on a domestic boundary. → The Japan Rubber Manufacturers Association also attaches importance to

an international viewpoint, and considers setting the 2020 targets in terms of intensity. If reducing CO2 worldwide, we should increase the global share of Japanese low-carbon products from the viewpoint of LCA, rather than lowering the production output of Japan. Therefore, we are discussing reducing the emissions per one product or one ton during manufacturing.

・If aluminum and copper are domestically recycled, the apparent CO2 emissions will increase. This is because LCA evaluation including raw material mining overseas is not performed. These discussions are important for studying the post-Kyoto framework. → In the Japan Aluminum Association, aluminum recycling is important for

reducing the electricity cost, and we would like to continue the recycling as a contributor to stopping the global warming.

・To teach and spread Japanese high-efficiency manufacturing technologies to foreign countries, it is necessary for Japanese companies to have incentives. What does each group think about it? → The Japan Chemical Industry Association is working on how we can

deploy the top-level technologies of the chemical industry to foreign countries through the bilateral credit scheme of METI, etc.

・Energy management is good for companies. However, it seems that they are forced to do it. We expect positive reporting. → In the Japan Rubber Manufacturers Association, top management of

companies recognize that they must reduce energy consumptions, and view the reduction efforts as a positive approach for delivering products that contribute to the measures to cope with the global warming.

→ In the Japan Copper and Brass Association, manufacturers are earnestly working on the energy intensity improvement as a top-priority task that directly translates into earnings. However, they cannot stop the furnaces despite the production decrease, and have great difficulty with intensity deterioration.

・You are worried that the domestic production may fall as a result of accelerated hollowing. However, does the target setting at the Japan Aluminum Association and the Japan Copper and Brass Association, in particular, assume that the production output will increase?

→ The production output in the Japan Aluminum Association has not returned to the level before the Lehman Shock. The energy intensity last year was barely at the 11% target. Although the production output has not been recovered this fiscal year either, the intensity has been maintained. We see that our energy-saving efforts made so far are taking effect.

→ The Japan Copper and Brass Association described the production forecast, which was assumed when the energy intensity target was raised, as-is. We think that this figure must not be revised every year in studying the intensity.

[Japan Rubber Manufacturers Association] ・ The association should make further reduction efforts as a group with large

CO2 emissions. ・In your explanation of LCA, the comparative product for housing insulations,

which account or 80% of the whole, is non-insulated housing. This is inappropriate. It would affect the overall credibility of the LCA evaluation. → When we prepared the LCA report (see Note), a review committee

consisting of experts pointed out a similar problem (P. 55 of the report). As described in the proviso on the upper paragraph on page 23 of the data submitted today, the improvement of the calculation method is our future task. In addition, we are considering preparing LCA guidelines on behalf of the industry in order to improve reliability.

・In your explanation of LCA, resin sashes for housing are omitted. They have become popular also in Germany and China. You should evaluate them as a means with a large reduction effect in the overall positioning. → We are planning to issue a subsequent edition of the report, and will add

resin sashes, etc. in the edition. ・What is the problem in studying LCA? ・Can the Japan Chemical Industry Association take an initiative in which the

chemical industry shifts the high-mix low-volume production system to high-mix high-volume production with multiple manufacturers? That would increase the production efficiency.

・“The voluntary action plan is simply a vehicle for studying CO2 reduction during manufacturing. Even though LCA evaluation is substantial, the target does not have to be achieved.” That does not justify.

・Your LCA evaluation conducted for eight items is probably the world’s most advanced report, and therefore, it also disclosed problems. What do you think about the problems such as handing of duplicate counting and how to link it to

an international framework? [Lime Manufacturer Association] ・No matter pointed out by members. → We are working on LCA as a theme of the association. In addition, this

fiscal year, the Cabinet Office has not published an economic growth rate, which we used to use as a reference for production output forecast. The uncertain outlook of the economy remains as a cause for worry.

[Japan Rubber Manufacturers Association] ・The effect of cogeneration introduction is reflected in the CO2 emissions. This is

problematic in fairness in the calculation reporting/publication system. We would like you to correct it if possible. → Although this issue is discussed every year, we accept it as a report of the

association’s voluntary action plan. ・Concerning cogeneration, the industry is capable of utilizing the

low-temperature waste heat, generated in the rubber vulcanization process, very effectively. Therefore, instead of uniformly conducting cogeneration, CO2

emissions should be collectively reduced by taking individual optimization measures according to the respective industries. ・The tire labeling system is innovative. EU plans to implement labeling for rolling

resistance, wet grip and noise. Japan should include noise too. China and the United States intend to control standards for these three items in the tire trade friction problem between both countries. → Fuel-efficient tires help users reduce fuel costs and enable the

manufacturers to gain competitive edges and contribute to CO2 reduction. Therefore, they are actively introducing the labeling system. In Japan, the first fuel-efficient tire had two features: low rolling resistance and wet grip.

・Your association has a small number of member companies. It is important to encourage all member companies including small-scale ones to have a sense of involvement. What do you think about the effort to expand the scale? → For small-scale companies, we are conducting an educational activity

similar to the approach taken in the voluntary action plan. ・For the past few years, cogeneration efforts have halted. What do you think

about the frequent halts? → For unprofitable facilities with higher running cost and lower efficiency than

when they were introduced, it is inevitable to stop cogeneration. In such cases, the facilities will come to standstill or be replaced with new ones.

[Japan Aluminum Association] ・You reported that the website posted a collection of energy-saving cases. To

what extent is the collection utilized? →We held an energy-saving information exchange meeting. We would like to

identify how much the collection is used by conducting questionnaire or the like.

[Japanese Electric Wire & Cable Makers' Association] ・Why is the energy intensity in fiscal 2010 increased although the production

output was increased from the previous fiscal year? → It seems that one of the reasons is that the mainstay of metal electric wire

production is shifting from thick ones including electric cables to micro-diameter wires such as that for mobile phones.

・If the superconducting cable were put to practical application, it would be innovative for energy-saving. How will you work on the cable in the future? → Currently, partial practical application has been started on an experimental

basis. Since the initial investment is still costly, its introduction would require the power company’s decision.

[Japan Copper and Brass Association] ・Why was the energy intensity in fiscal 2010 much worse than that in fiscal 2003

when the production output was equal? → It seems that one of the reasons is that higher and higher values have been

added, and another reason was that energy-increase occurred because purchased materials after the partially-melt casting process was changed to self-manufacturing in the production plan.

Target-missing industries: Japan Iron and Steel Federation 6. Minutes:

[Japan Iron and Steel Federation] ・The relationship between the production output and the energy intensity should be

explained in more detail. Why isn’t the energy intensity improved while the production output is maintained at the past level?

→ One of the reasons is the increase in special steel, which represents a large energy load.

→ In the process of production recovery from the production decrease in fiscal 2008 and 2009, the adjustment of optimal production conditions was not sufficient in some parts.

→ It is expected that the intensity in fiscal 2011 will be slightly improved. ・Concerning lifecycle evaluation, did you pick up only the portions where steel

contributes to CO2 reduction in performing the evaluation? → Page 21 of the data shows evaluation performed by strictly selecting only the

effects of steel, while page 22 shows only the fields where the targets that would not have been achieved without steel were picked up.

・Concerning effective utilization of waste plastics, do you not have a plan for actively

utilizing waste plastics generated from, for example, industrial wastes? → We will work on it while individually responding to waste plastics generated from

industrial wastes. In addition, we would be willing to also handle those plastic products currently not subject to the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law if they were added to the law.

・What do you think about the production forecasts for fiscal 2011 and 2012? Can you

set a higher reduction target based on the outlook of the Japanese steel industry in the future where productions in China and other emerging countries will increase?

→ The crude steel production forecast for fiscal 2011 is approximately 107 million tons, excluding the impact of the Thai flooding, etc. We assume that the forecast of fiscal 2012 will also be slightly severe.

→ The 2020 target reflects all technologies currently put to practical application. Although there may be new technologies in the future, this is the maximum target for now.

・The Kyoto Protocol is an unusual international agreement under which CO2

emissions, which could represent economic activities themselves, shall be reduced under an international commitment. Japan should change its policy method in the future so that focus is placed on the spreading of its cutting-edge technologies into the world, rather than discussing the reduction.

・Under the Kyoto Protocol, Japan has worked on reduction without making a fuss.

You should properly describe that the CO2 emissions in the steel industry have immensely increased worldwide, and acknowledge that Japanese approaches such as eco solutions and eco products will be devised as a solution to that.

・Given the worldwide CO2 problem, we keenly think about how we should feel such

strenuous efforts of the Japanese steel industry in the circumstances where China produces 700 million tons of crude steel without any obligation for reduction.

・Concerning the development of innovative technologies, it is important to confirm

those technologies that we should properly develop while we can and check the roadmap for that from a strategic viewpoint.

・Concerning the evaluation of reductions seen in LCA, the steel industry presented

challenging figures despite the availability of no common methodology. We should discuss the point at issue including the methodology in that the scope of efforts will be widened from a medium-to-long term.

・Concerning the overseas contribution of eco products and eco solutions and the

domestic reduction of 5 million tons, the natures of the figures slightly differ from each other. We must properly discuss the overseas calculation in the midst of uncertainties such as measurability.

・It seems that the fact that factors such as how to position the reduction contribution

outside Japan as the goal of the fundamental discussion on energy and the environment are important is suggested in the report by the steel industry.

→ As the increase in the global demand for steel is expected as a result of economic growth in China and other emerging countries, we think it is important to build an international framework for properly evaluating the contribution using Japanese technologies to the world. Therefore, we would appreciate support also from the administration.

・Concerning the plan for implementing a low-carbon society, we would like you to

reflect the matters pointed out at the WGs, including those other than in the steel field, in the plan.

→We will work on that while thoroughly discussing it with the Keidanren.

IV. Future Issues

Considering the contents of deliberation on the evaluation and verification of the Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan and the voluntary action plans of fiscal 2010, appropriate governmental and industrial measures are necessary concerning the issues described below.

In addition, for appropriate evaluation and verification, it is necessary for each industry to describe the grounds of the outlook prediction and an outlook for each fiscal year in the first promise period where possible.

Further, the matters indicated below have repeatedly been pointed out, and the next fiscal year will be the final fiscal year. For these reasons, if these matters cannot be addressed without reasonable grounds, it would affect the evaluation of the efforts in the form of voluntary action plans, and therefore, positive responses must be given where possible. Then, concerning matters difficult to address in a short period, it is necessary to take sufficient actions as the tasks in the voluntary efforts in fiscal 2013 onward.

1. Improvement of the Likelihood of Target Achievement by Target-missing Industries

In fiscal 2010, emissions were increased in many industries because the rapid recession since fiscal 2008 turned into recovery, although efforts in various industries such as technological innovation, introduction of energy-saving facilities and high-efficiency facilities, fuel conversion, and facility administration improvement were continued.

Those industries that have achieved the targets as of fiscal 2010 should continue their reduction efforts so that they can keep achieving the targets even if the economy slows down or the power emission factor worsens in the future.

Industries yet to achieve the targets should present future measures for filling the discrepancies (including the use of the Kyoto Mechanism) and their effects as quantitatively and specifically as possible. Specifically, to further increase the likelihood of achieving targets in voluntary action plans, these industries should set outlooks and targets where possible and steadily proceed with measures, while monitoring future scheduled measures and their effects quantitatively and specifically. Industries that are considering using the Kyoto Mechanism in case of a difficulty in achieving a target should clarify prospects about the amount and timing of credit acquisition as specifically as possible. Industries not mentioning the Kyoto Mechanism now should also consider using it in case of difficulty in achieving a target.

To improve the likelihood of target achievement, the trial trading of emissions in the domestic integrated market should be used by considering its situations. In addition, the sharing of responsibility between companies in each industry should

be checked now and reviewed as required. With regard to industrial requests for improving the likelihood of target

achievement, the government should also steadily promote efforts based on the Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan, and review related systems and their operations.

In evaluating the likelihood of target achievement, given that activity outlook is very important as a premise for that, the likelihood of activity outlook should also be improved in the future.

2. Setting of Targets, Including CO2 EmissionsSince the Kyoto Protocol is targeted at total greenhouse gas emissions, the

industries are expected to make aggressive efforts, and become aware of the reduction of CO2 emissions more deeply, including industries using intensity as a target index.

The iron and steel, automotive, and other industries whose future activity depends on the market and other factors, are also taking measures with energy consumption and CO2 emissions as target indexes. Therefore, industries using only intensity as an index should be more positive about using CO2 emissions as a target index.

Nippon Keidanren is also expected to keep urging their member industries to set a target with CO2 emissions as well.

3. Improvement of Transparency through Aggressive Information DisclosureCO2 emissions used to evaluate the voluntary action plans of industries are

basically planned and managed by each industry. Based on the Global Warming Law, a calculation, reporting, and announcement system for greenhouse gas emissions has been provided. The system announces CO2 emissions from individual companies (business establishments) of a certain emission scale or greater.

Under these circumstances, the industries were requested to state CO2

emissions from each company (business establishment) participating in voluntary action plans on the list of participating companies according to the Global Warming Law. However, 18 industries did not disclose enough information.

By using the CO2 emission data of each business establishment participating in voluntary action plans based on the Global Warming Law, each industry should secure transparency by disclosing information more positively, including the quantitative presentation of advanced cases.

4. Deepening of Voluntary Action Plans and Extension of Object RangeThe Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan prescribes the deepening of

voluntary action plans and the extension of object range as follows: The targets and content of industrial voluntary action plans should be entrusted to

the corresponding industries. However, social demands should be satisfied as follows:

(1) Industries with no plans should create plans. (2) Industries with qualitative targets should quantify their targets. (3) The government should evaluate and verify the plans strictly. (4) Targets too low for the current situation should be raised.

In addition, the targets of Nippon Keidanren's voluntary action plan for the environment should be well achieved, and individual industries are recommended to work aggressively for voluntary target achievement.

The government should promote new plan formulation, target raising, etc. by pressing ahead with the implementation of periodical follow-ups by relevant councils, etc. The industries should also aggressively press ahead with these efforts where possible.

Especially, industries that have already achieved targets should raise their targets to further improve the likelihood of achieving the reduction promises in the Kyoto Protocol. If they do not raise targets, the industries should give their reasons after presenting quantitative values where possible.

5. Information Transmission in and outside JapanJapan’s efforts based on voluntary action plans have produced fruit by serving the

central role in the industry’s global warming countermeasures as shown in the past follow-ups of the 2010 results. However, it can hardly be said that these efforts are accurately acknowledged in Japan and abroad at present. Therefore, Japan should aggressively transmit information on these efforts to foreign countries.

More specifically, the government and Nippon Keidanren should continue to prepare data on past evaluation and verification results that the population can easily understand, and work on aggressive information transmission to foreign countries through activities such as publishing these results in English on their websites.

In addition, the government should also aggressively transmit easy-to-understand information to consumers in order to promote consumer enlightenment, guided mainly by industries responsible for developing and selling products familiar to everyday life.

The industries should make international comparisons based on highly reliable data, and conduct aggressive information transmission to foreign countries about their efforts based on voluntary action plans.

6. Strengthening of Efforts in Business/Commercial, Household, and Transport Sectors

According to a report on the greenhouse gas emissions of FY2009 in Japan (definite figures), the industrial sector reduced the emissions substantially in comparison with those in FY1990. On the other hand, in the business/commercial and household sectors, emissions increased greatly. In the transport sector, the emissions were larger than those of FY1990. The emissions, however, have been decreasing in these years. It is necessary to let this trend continue to the future. It is important to encourage these sectors, as well as industrial sectors, to keep reducing the emissions. Further aggressive efforts by industries are necessary for contribution to the business/commercial and transport sectors through energy conservation measures at head and other offices and cooperative delivery, and to the household and transport sectors through the development and resale of energy-saving products.

More specifically, the industries should strive to promptly set CO2 emission targets at head and other offices in a comprehensive and cross-industrial manner, and urge the member companies to promote environmental household bookkeeping at the homes of their employees.

7. Evaluation with Life Cycle AssessmentGiven that the global warming is an event that is progressing on a global scale, it

is very important to evaluate products in terms of the whole life cycle, instead of viewing product evaluation simply based on the manufacturing process. Therefore, the industry is expected to quantitatively evaluate contributions to reductions at other sectors and overseas by high-performance products superior to conventional products while presenting evidence that is as objective as possible.

8. Evaluation of the Past ResultsConsidering that it has been more than ten years since the start of the evaluation

and verification of voluntary action plans at the Industrial Structure Council (jointly conducted with the Central Environment Council since fiscal 2008), and that a half of the target period between fiscal 2008 and 2012 has elapsed, the government should comprehensively evaluate the results of the past efforts based on voluntary action plans.

In addition, the knowledge and other information acquired through result evaluation should adequately be reflected in voluntary efforts in fiscal 2013 onward that will be formulated in the future.

9. Responses following the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant Accident

Given the circumstances where all nuclear power plants in Japan have been shut down due to the Great East Japan Earthquake, which occurred on March 11, 2011, and the Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant accident associated with the earthquake, it is expected that the power emission factor will worsen in the future.

Even under these circumstances, it is important for the industries to appropriately figure out the impact of the worsening of the power emission factor, etc. and the effects of their voluntary reduction efforts by, for example, performing evaluation of the changes in emissions in cases where the power emission factor is fixed, and evaluation of the increment in the generated electricity through private power generation, while fundamentally continuing to achieve their targets.

The government should study an appropriate method for evaluating the reduction efforts made by the industries under such circumstances.

*1 The association considers that its target can be achieved by way of capital expenditures while its member companies are making efforts to achieve their targets such as acquiring approval of afforestation CDM Projects.

*2 Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association and Japan Auto-Body Industries Association integrated a voluntary action plan beginning in FY 2008.

(Note) If it is noted that "Target is achievable", "－" is marked even if there is not a note under "Utilization of the Kyoto Mechanisms, domestic credits, and so forth are not necessary".

*3 Use of Kyoto Mechanisms for supplementation is not being considered, but, projects using Kyoto Mechanisms are being promoted. *4 At the individual member company level, initiatives to convert CO2 emission reduction effects from supplied housing to domestic credits

are underway. In addition, there are companies that are converting CO2 emission reduction business in group companies to domestic credits in order to promote investment in CO2 emission reduction by group companies.

(2) Example of initiatives on use of Kyoto Mechanisms In the Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan, promotion and utilization of Kyoto Mechanisms are considered important from the perspective of Japan's contribution to the prevention of global warming.

i) Initiatives by Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan � Development of biomass power generation, thermal efficiency improvement projects, and

tree-planting programs targeting joint implementation (JI) and clean development mechanisms (CDM) as set out in the Kyoto Protocol

� Funding for Japan GHG Reduction Fund (JGRF), with joint participation by the World Bank's carbon Fund and Japanese industry

ii) Initiatives by Japan Iron and Steel Federation � Japan's iron and steel industry has developed some of the world's best energy conservation

technology. By transferring it overseas as a method for utilization of Kyoto Mechanisms, the industry is securing credits through clean development mechanisms (CDM) and joint implementation (JI) from the perspective of contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions on a global scale. � Japan Iron and Steel Federation funding of Japan GHG Reduction Fund and BioCarbon

Fund: 1 million t-CO2 total. � CDM project commitments on iron and steel industry energy conservation technology

(CDQ/China and sintering waste heat recovery/Philippines) and engineering technology (chlorofluorocarbon disposal, etc./China): 34 million t-CO2 total

� Total commitment is 35 million t-CO2 [equivalent to 7,000,000 t- CO2/year (CO2emissions�3.5% compared with FY 1990)]. Of this, 33 million t-CO2 [equivalent to 6.6 million t- CO2/year (�3.3%)] is registered with the UN.

2) Targets for energy-saving measures in the business commercial sector (office buildings, etc.) [17 industries]

Seventeen industries have reported that they have set targets for energy-saving measures in office buildings, etc.

<Status of targets> Industry Details of targets

(1) Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan

Individual companies have set specific targets for the following measures. � Reduction of electricity and water consumption � Each office is to establish an environment management system and set office targets

(2) Petroleum Association of Japan

Of those 8 companies that have head quarters outside the oil factory, three companies have set own numerical targets to reduce CO2emissions. � Reduce electricity consumption by 10.9 % compared to actual usage between FY2007

and FY2009. � An 8% reduction in CO2 emissions from the FY 2005–2008 average for FY

2010–2014� Reduce energy consumption by 3% by FY2012 compared to FY2009.

(3) Japan Gas Association

Major business operators are setting own targets. � A 3% reduction in CO2 emission intensity relative to office floor area in FY 2011

compared with FY 2010� Reducing CO2 emission intensity of gas and electricity consumption to less than

72.9kg - CO2 per 1m2 of office space in FY2013.

(4) Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association and Japan Auto-Body Industries Association

Examples of individual companies' targets � A3-year average 2% reduction in CO2 emissions for FY 2008–2010 (intensity relative

to number of employees) � Reducing CO2 emissions in FY2010 by 5% compared to FY2003's emissions � At least a 1% year-on-year reduction with FY 2009 as the benchmark

(5) Japan Auto Parts Industries Association FY 2008–2012 CO2 emissions target of 506,000 tons (6) Japan Industrial Vehicles Association 4 companies out of 7 participating companies have set own targets.

(7) 4 Electric and Electronic Industry Association

8 major companies have set voluntary action targets with achievement of energy-saving measures as an indicator. � Strive to raise the achievement level of energy-saving measures (= Σ (number of

energy-saving measures) / Σ (recommended number of energy-saving measure) by approximately 10 points from FY2006 during FY2008 and FY2012 within range that is technologically and economically possible.

(8) Japan Iron and Steel Federation Targeting to “reduce CO2emissions by 5% on average between FY2008 and FY2012 compared to average of that between FY2003 and FY2005”.

(9) Japan Cement Association

Examples of targets set by companies � Reduce FY 2005 annual kerosene use (5.8 kl) by 5% � As the target figure for an ISO 14000 implementation plan, 100% resource recovery from waste � Reduce peak electricity by 25% from the previous fiscal year. Reduce CO2 emissions from the FY 2010 level of 377 tons to 375 tons in FY 2011.

(10) Japan Chemical Industry Association

Individual companies having voluntary targets. � Promotion of energy-saving measures at offices: for example, reduction of electricity

usage by 6% by FY2010 compared to FY1990. � Reduce electricity usage at headquarter and branch offices by 1%/year. � Set office air conditioning temperature at above 28 °C � Monitor office electricity usage monthly and make sure not to fall to the level of the

time before starting the reduction activities.

(11) Japan Copper and Brass Association

Individual companies are setting own targets. Energy consumption during FY 2010 fell by 53% compared with the previous year. The main reason was that one member company relocated its office and stopped using steam and cold water. This made a major contribution to improving intensity.

(12) Japan Chain Stores Association Individual companies have set own targets and established internal standards to take measures.

(13) Japan Franchise Association

• Energy intensity improved during FY 2009 and 2010 due to the effects of various energyconservation measures and increase used of catalytic crackers, which have a significanteffect on overall refinery energy efficiency, because of recovering demand for someproducts. However, the causes of the demand recovery were unusual and temporary.They included increased gasoline demand due to lowered expressway tolls, increaseddemand for naphtha due to economic recovery, increased demand for gasoline and lightoil due to the ongoing recovery and very hot summers, and increase kerosene demanddue to very cold winters.• Some refineries are currently out of operation because of the Great East JapanEarthquake. With forecasts of medium- and long-term demand for petroleum productsincreasingly uncertain, it is extremely difficult to set new targets, so targets for FY 2010were not raised.

PPS is currently in a period of business growth and expansion, so it is in the process ofconstructing a power source portfolio as its operating base. Moreover, because of theGreat East Japan Earthquake, CO2 emission factors from power purchased from generalelectric utilities and wholesale energy markets and trends in power demand are difficult topredict. It is therefore difficult to raise targets at this time.

utilities recognize the importance of measures against global warming. Along with an all-out effort to ensure the safety of nuclear power, measures will continue on both theelectric supply side and the customer side.

CO2 emission intensity forecastAfter the Great East Japan Earthquake, as of September 2011, no nuclear power plantshad resumed operations following regular inspections. Operating plans going forward arealso uncertain. There is thus concern that the actual emissions factor will worsen duringFY 2011 and 2012. In addition, increased private power generation and changes inoperational status may lead to further emissions increases in the future. Under thesecircumstances, the environment does not permit consideration of raising targets.CO2 emissions targetsAs with CO2 emission intensity as discussed above, the current environment does notpermit discussion of raising targets.

With uncertain situations such as the European financial crisis likely to continue, it isdifficult to forecast future production. it is also likely that exports to emerging countriessuch as China will rapidly increase, so related production activity is expected to increase.Under these circumstances, it would be difficult to raise the targets at this point, so thestatus quo will be maintained.

The current outlook is projected figures that have been calculated, but as seen from thenews that some manufacturers will increase production, parts production and exportaccompanying future recovery of auto body production is quite possible. targets willtherefore be kept as is, but review of targets will be considered according to productiontrends in the coming fiscal year and beyond.

This industry group's production volume increased for six consecutive years starting in FY2002 (increasing by 25.7%). Due to rapid changes in the world economy starting in thesecond half of FY 2008, it saw consecutive production decreases in FY 2008 and FY2009 (10.4% and 8.9%, respectively). Recovery in FY 2010 led to an increase of 12.4%.Projections show the industry meeting its targets of 90% of FY 1990 with energyconsumption of 86% and CO2 emissions of 85%.However, economic trends are unclear due to the effects of Great East JapanEarthquake. Reconstruction demand may lead to a major production increase, so thesituation is unpredictable. This will be handled through continued investment in energyconservation.

Average projections for the five years (FY 2008–2012) in the current fiscal year's follow-up survey use actual results and recent years' factors in the power factor. Targets areprojected to be met, but if the impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake leading to thesuspension of nuclear power is incorporated with a worsening of the power factor, roughcalculation shows an increase of a few percentage points to up to about 10%. At thispoint, therefore, targets will not be raised, and the factor will be carefully watched throughthe final year.

Domestic production decreased during 2008 and 2009. Although there was a slightrecovery trend during FY 2010, the economic recovery is expected to remain anemic andslow.Although oil prices are rising, if fuel conversion and energy conservation measures areable to hold energy costs to FY 2002 levels, processing volume is expected to recover toabout the FY 2002 level of 3,477 (million m2). However, since some factories have beenshut because of inflow of cheap overseas products and higher crude oil prices, domesticproduction capacity has decreased. In addition, processing complexity has increased.Recovery to 100% of the FY 2002 level is therefore unlikely. Only 90% is projected.In concrete terms, the production target for FY 2010 is therefore projected at 90% of theFY 2002 figure of 3,477 (million m2), i.e., 3,129 (million m2).

Due to the long-term economic stagnation and the suspension of nuclear power followingthe accident caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake, the power generation structureis expected to change markedly. Electricity accounts for about 65% of the energy used bythe industry. Measures to promote reduced usage will be promoted. Targets will beconsidered in light of conditions during FY 2011 and future trends in national policy.

Metal (copper and aluminum) wiresProduction of metal (copper and aluminum) wires in FY 2010 was about the same as inFY 2009, and targets were met. However, there is high demand from manufacturers forhigher performance products. As more value is added to wires, energy consumptionduring manufacturing processes increases. Such automotive wires are expected toincrease in the future.

Targets were raised in both FY 2006 and FY 2007 (average energy intensity for FY 2008–2012 of 9.05% of FY 1995 [13.55% of FY 1990]). Following the Lehman Brothers shock,however, production declined in FY 2008 and FY 2009. Production fell to a historically lowlevel in FY 2009 in particular. This lowered capacity utilization, so energy intensity roseand worsened.FY 2010 production recovered to about __% of what it was before the Lehman Brothersshock. If production recovers to the standard level for intensity of 790,000 tons, the totalinvestment in energy conservation over the past 10 years of about 4.4 billion yen willhave resulted in the reduction of 31,400 kl crude oil equivalent.

Production contracted sharply with the sudden recession in FY 2008. Under thesecircumstances, each mine is actively working to conserve energy. In order to meet thetargets, a 3% reduction on a crude oil equivalent basis in intensity of energy used isnecessary. Each mine's drilling and other conditions are different, so it is difficult toexpress quantitatively. Each mine uses its creative ingenuity on low-key efforts to saveenergy, such as energy-conserving operation of heavy machinery, turning off lights duringlunch breaks, or using automatic lighting. Along with such efforts on reducing intensity ofdiesel and electric power, the effects of the new measures discussed in I (4) and higheroperating rates for production facilities due to the recovery are expected to further lowerintensity It will therefore be possible to meet the targets

Regarding projections, work has already been completed on measures such as fuelconversion of existing furnaces that bring about major reductions. In the future, mostmeasures will address details (a shift from things with high carbon emission factors tothings with low ones). Improvements through fuel conversion and energy conservation bybusinesses are expected to grow more sluggish.In addition, as the economy recovers, a shift to environmentally-conscious products (lowflush toilets, etc.) and an increase in homes with two bathrooms are judged likely to leadto increased production activities.

During FY 2010, although oil and gas production decreased, causing emission intensityto rise, decreased well boring, burning of released gases, and further efforts to reduceemissions led to decreases in CO2 emissions and emission intensity compared with FY2009.In the future, as demand for natural gas rises, the center of production will shift to gasfields, where intensity is relatively high. However, strengthened measures of greenhousegas reduction, such as the effective use of low-pressure gas (Yufutsu gas field)scheduled for 2011, enable an average projection that targets will be met during FY 2008–2012. Suitable measures will be taken in light of the effects of the Great East JapanEarthquake.In addition, the industry will carry out greenhouse gas reduction at overseas projects thatare not part of the quantitative targets, promote development of natural gas, and actively

While no major changes in operating hours or floor area are expected, volume demandhas increased by 40% compared with the previous year. Analysis thus attributes much ofthe cause of the energy increase to increased production.In the future, promotion of energy conservation efforts to meet targets will continue. Alongwith working to save energy for the lighting, air conditioning, and compressors thataccount for the majority of energy use, further effort will be made to make overallproduction activity more efficient. This is expected to result in a reduction of energy use ofabout 8,059 kl crude oil equivalent per year.In addition, in order for this group to show its members a concrete process towardsmeeting its targets, it has set out reduction targets ranging from 5% to 30% for eachmember company based on 2010 results and the companies' business scale and roomfor further energy conservation.in addition, the group has collected effective energy conservation measures in itsE i l A i i i M l hi h i di ib ll b i Thi

Member department stores are working to improve energy intensity by investing in energyconservation through the installation of energy saving devices when they remodel orrebuild stores or open new ones.In light of this trend, and from the perspective of cost effectiveness as well, furtherstrengthening of these efforts seems necessary Further study will be carried out

Energy intensity has been trending downwards since FY 1990 due to a shift towardsenergy saving stores and the installation of new equipment during remodels. The industryis therefore working on a further reduction from the FY 2007 follow-up (23% reductionfrom the base year [FY 1990]). However, the introduction of new products and services,such as installation of ATMs and ticket machines and expansion of in-store cookery(breads, rice, fried foods, etc.), have tended to increase energy use. The very hot summerduring FY 2010 in particular increased summer energy use, causing a worsening ofenergy intensity.In the future, efforts to further increase energy efficiency will be essential.
