Calculation methodology for key environmental data

Classification Item Calculation method
Energy / GHG Energy Energy = (fuel, electricity, etc.) × energy conversion factor
  • Conversion factors for fuel and electricity: Standard heating value of the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy (2023 values in the March 2025 revised edition)
  • Scope of calculation: Manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas
GHG Energy-related CO2 emissions = (fuel quantity, electricity consumption) × CO2 emission factor
Non-energy-related GHG (Japan only) = Gas emissions × Global warming potential (GWP)
  • CO2 emission factor
    Electricity: Japan; List of Emission Factors by Electricity Provider, published by the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, for FY2026 Reporting
    Overseas; 2023 value from IEA EMISSION FACTORS 2025
    Fuel: Japan, Overseas; Ministry of the Environment, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Greenhouse Gas Emissions Calculation and Reporting Manual Ver 6.1
  • GWP: Values under the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Accounting, Reporting, and Disclosure System
  • Scope of calculation : Manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas
CO2  Overall  index = Emissions / Base year emissions(Base year=100)
Location-based Scope 2 CO2 emission = purchased electricity quantity × CO2 emission factor
  • CO2 emission factor:
    Japan; National Average Emission Factor by Electricity Provider, published by the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, from FY2025
    Overseas; 2023 value from IEA Emissions Factors 2025
  • Scope of calculation: Manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas
Market-based Scope 2 CO2 emission = purchased electricity quantity × CO2 emission factor
  • CO2 emission factor:
    Japan; Actual emission factor values of purchased electricity providers
    Overseas; 2023 value from IEA Emissions Factors 2025
    However, electricity generated from renewable energy source has an emission factor of zero
  • Scope of calculation: Manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas
Scope3 C1 Purchased product service: Product production weight × emission factor + CO2 emissions from business partners + emissions from packaging material production
Emissions derived from product weight are calculated assuming that crawler models are composed only of steel, and tire models are composed of steel and rubber.
Scope of calculation: major products in Japan and overseas (construction equipment, mining equipment, forestry machinery, and presses)
C2 Capital goods: capital investment amount × emission factor
Scope of calculation: Komatsu Group (Komatsu and its consolidated subsidiaries)
C3 Fuel- and energy-related activities not included in Scope 1 or 2: amount of purchased fuel × upstream emission factor + amount of purchased electricity × upstream emission factor
Scope of calculation: Manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas
C4 Transportation, Delivery (upstream): Fuel consumption for procurement logistics × emission factor + fuel consumption for product transportation × emission factor
(Domestic logistics from business partners to Komatsu plants, and domestic and overseas product transportation from Komatsu plants to customers)
Scope of calculation: logistics sites in Japan and overseas
C5 Waste from operations: Waste volume × emission factor + emissions from waste transportation
Scope of calculation: Manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas
C6 Business trip: travel expenses × emission factor
Scope of calculation: Komatsu Group (Komatsu and its consolidated subsidiaries)
C7 Employee commuting: commuting expenses × emission factor
Scope of calculation: Komatsu Group (Komatsu and its consolidated subsidiaries)
C11 Use of products sold: Σ (Production volume per product model × Fuel consumption(L/h) × Product life(h) × Emission factor)
Scope of calculation: major products in Japan and overseas (construction equipment, mining equipment, and forestry machinery)
C12 Disposal of products sold: Product weight × Emission factor
Emissions derived from product weight are calculated assuming that crawler models are composed only of steel, and tire models are composed of steel and rubber.
Scope of calculation: major products in Japan and overseas (construction equipment, mining equipment, forestry machinery, and presses)
  Emission factor
C1, C2, C3, C4, C6, C7, C11, C12: Emission intensity database for calculating greenhouse gas emissions of organizations through the supply chain, Ministry of the Environment, Ver. 3.6
C3 fuel and electricity: AIST-IDEA Ver. 3.5.1 Standard Edition (May 30, 2025), IDEA Lab, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)
CO2 emissions index during product operation CO2 emissions index calculated by using 2010 as the base year, keeping product composition, sales volume, and CO2 emission factors fixed, and reflecting changes due to improvements in product fuel efficiency. For product groups acquired in or after 2010, the sales volume in the year of acquisition is used as the base.
Exhaust SOx emissions Total for heavy oil, kerosene, light oil and coke:
Calculated from fuel quantity × sulfur content in fuel
NOx emissions Total for heavy oil, kerosene, light oil, city gas, and LPG:
Calculated from Exhaust gas quantity × NOx concentration
Wastewater BOD emissions Calculated from wastewater volume × average measured BOD concentration
COD emissions Calculated from wastewater volume × average measured COD concentration
Water Water input Total water input, including municipal water, industrial water and groundwater
Water input intensity Intensity at each plant = (amount of water used) / (internal manufacturing value); the base year of the index is set at 100.
Base year: 2010(KMC base year : 2018)
Overall intensity index = weighted average of the improvement rate in intensity at each plant from the base year, weighted by the water input ratio in the base year.
Waste Waste amount Total waste excluding valuable materials
Waste intensity Intensity at each plant = (amount of waste) / (internal manufacturing value); the base year of the index is set at 100.
Base year: 2010(KMC base year : 2018)
Overall intensity index = weighted average of the improvement rate in intensity at each plant from the base year, weighted by the waste amount ratio in the base year.
PRTR-designated substances Amounts released and transferred Calculated by multiplying the amount of auxiliary materials used, etc. by the content rate of designated chemical substances and the emission and transfer rates, in accordance with the Act on Confirmation, etc. of Release Amounts of Specific Chemical Substances in the Environment and Promotion of Improvements to the Management Thereof (PRTR Act).
  • The calculation of greenhouse gas emissions includes uncertainties associated with activity data and estimates of emission factors. In addition, global warming potentials (GWPs) may be revised due to advances in scientific knowledge and other factors.
