15 7. Reduction Target after FY 2020 (formulated February 2015) J S E I A Low Carbon Society Action Plan Phase II (2030) (formulated in February 2015 Review in FY 2017) - Reduction target: Reduce CO2 basic unit by 49% compared to FY 2005 *FY 2030 basic unit: 32t - CO 2/100 million yen (Standard FY, FY 2005) Note: Review of standard year and target value carried out every 3 years. Basis for Setting - In the mid to long term, the trend for the number of housing developments in Japan is on the decline, however production activity volume is anticipated to be steady due to expansion of the home renovation market, development of high value added products by every company and efforts to expand applications. - Additionally, it is anticipated that the volume of production activity will increase, such as the demand rush before consumption tax increase and the special demand from the Tokyo Olympic Games. However, it can be considered that a subsequent reduction in demand reduction will also occur. - The forecast for the long-term trend of the housing construction materials market is that there will be no expansion and will be steady. - On the other hand, fuel conversion that contributed to the reduction of CO2 emissions was completed around FY 2005 and following this, the energy structure became highly depended on electricity and the volume of CO2 emissions derived from electricity increased by more than 50% in FY2013. In the future, use of electricity will further increase with the introduction of automated facilities in the production process and the outlook for the electrical power emission coefficient is also uncertain. 14
