Environmental Initiatives
CO2 reduction
Through appropriate air conditioning temperature settings, power management of lights and electronic devices, and water conservation
We will work on saving electricity and water in the office.
By promoting eco-driving and introducing EVs and PHVs as company vehicles,
We will focus on reducing gasoline consumption in our sales activities.
Car sharing services have also been newly introduced starting in 2024.
Waste Reduction
Focusing on not generating waste
Through the reuse and recycling of auxiliary materials
We are reducing waste.
Domestic CO2 reduction contribution
Rooftop solar power generation through leasing
We collaborate with corporations and local governments to effectively utilize spaces such as rooftops and roofs, and have installed approximately 5MW of solar power generation in total domestically.
Until then, TSB's business had focused on selling electronic components, but their solar business, a new business model, received the 2016 Tokyo Metropolitan Government Management Innovation Excellence Award from the Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Labor Bureau.
As renewable energy, it contributes not only to power supply but also to CO2 emission reduction.
Nine solar power generation systems nationwide
| Average annual power generation | Six-minute walk |
|---|---|
| Estimated annual CO2 reduction | 2,156 t-CO2 |
| Cumulative CO2 reduction (August 2013 - December 2023) |
21,328 tCO2 |
* 1 t-CO2 = Approximately half of the annual CO2 emissions per Japanese person
Overseas contributions to CO2 reduction
Thailand-Laos Floating Solar Power
We construct and supply power from floating solar power generation systems by utilizing reservoirs for industrial wastewater treatment and unused reservoirs.
Compared to land, water has a lower temperature, which is expected to improve power generation efficiency. By combining this with the ability to absorb variations between panels, the overall power generation efficiency can be improved.
Furthermore, it can be applied in areas where the power grid is not well-developed, allowing for effective utilization of unused space.
It also addresses the risk of electric shock from flooding through its output cut-off function, contributing to safety by not only supplying power to existing grids as an alternative but also providing flexible power to undeveloped areas and helping to reduce CO2 emissions.
14MW Floating Solar Power System in Vientiane, Laos
| Average annual power generation | 14 MW |
|---|---|
| Estimated annual CO2 reduction | 6,838 t-CO2 |
| Cumulative CO2 reduction (August 2013 - December 2023) |
24,837 t-CO2 |
* 1 t-CO2 = Approximately half of the annual CO2 emissions per Japanese person
Regional Revitalization Entrepreneur
TSB x Samegawa Village
"Regional Revitalization Entrepreneur," a collaboration between local governments and private companies led by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.
At TSB, we conduct community contribution activities in Samegawa Village, Fukushima Prefecture.
Work and economic growth
Developing attractive products centered around **soybeans**, a specialty of Samegawa Village, such as extending shelf life through a filled tofu production method, and creating delicious **okara cookies** and **handmade kinako stollen** from the large amount of okara produced as a byproduct.
We support job satisfaction and economic growth through online sales sites and the like where those items are sold.
Creating sustainable towns and cities
We are supporting activities that will re-discover the unique charms of Samegawa Village, such as "SAMEGAWA Rogaining (photography competition at designated points)" and the local custom of "Tsukimi-dorobo" (moon-viewing thief). We aim to revitalize the region while increasing Samegawa Village's name recognition through active exposure on social media, television, and other outlets.
The responsibility to create, the responsibility to use
The mandatory implementation of HACCP began in June 2020 due to revisions in the Food Sanitation Act, but small and medium-sized businesses are finding it difficult to comply, leading to stalled adoption.
By supporting the adoption of HACCP by these businesses, we contribute to the development of local industries while ensuring food safety.
