Calling on the Japanese Government to Raise Its 2030 Renewable Energy Target to 40-50%
18th January 2021 Calling on the Japanese government to raise its 2030 renewable energy target to 40-50% With commitments by EU countries, Japan, South Korea, Canada, New Zealand, and with the United States intending to join this year, ‘carbon neutral by 2050’ has become a common goal of more than 120 countries around the globe. Key to meeting the goal is the promotion of a rapid and significant expansion of renewable energy along with improvements in energy efficiency. EU countries and U.S. states have already set progressive goals to be reached by 2030, ranging from 40-74% share in each electricity mix. In contrast, Japan’s target shares of renewable energy for fiscal 2030 electricity mix is 22- 24%. In order for Japan to meet its responsibilities to be one of the leaders in global efforts, the target needs to be much more ambitious. An ambitious target will stimulate renewable energy deployment, and Japanese companies will be able to play a greater role in the global business environment, where decarbonization is accelerating. It will enable Japanese companies more committed to the challenge of mitigating the climate crisis. We, as part of the global business community, call for the renewable energy target for fiscal 2030 to be revised from 22-24% to 40-50% in the next Strategic Energy Plan formulated this year.

Survey of Integrated Reports in Japan 2018
Survey of Integrated Reports in Japan 2018 Integrated Reporting Center of Excellence KPMG in Japan March 2019 home.kpmg/jp Message from global thought leaders In this, the fifth year this survey report has been issued, KPMG has solicited the observations of thought leaders on corporate reporting. Japanese businesses pride themselves on a longer-term focus compared to the rest of the world, where prioritizing short-term gains has too often become the norm. Focusing on long-term value creation and taking into account all of the resources an organization uses is the sustainable, profitable, and proven way to manage a business. Many Japanese businesses are just beginning to implement integrated thinking and reporting. The findings in this report show that senior management must take ownership to spread integrated thinking in their businesses – not just in accounting but in strategy, operations, marketing, and the rest of the company as well. This report makes me optimistic and excited for Japanese business leaders as they strive to think, act, and communicate in an integrated and sustainable way. Dominic Barton ― International Integrated Reporting Council, Chairman Integrated Reporting improves communication between companies and investors and where most effective, sets the stage for enhanced corporate value creation over the mid to long-term. Investors desire integrated reports which provide comprehensive information disclosure useful for making investment decisions. The International Corporate Governance Network (ICGN) has encouraged integrated reporting for many years. In 2015, ICGN s Disclosure and Transparency Committee ’ released Guidance on Integrated Business Reporting. The Guidance amplifies that strategic decisions should be based on factors that are broader than those reflected in the financial statements.

Daihatsu Dismantles 'Toyota Way'
JAPAN TOYOTA WAY: Members of the media are shown beneath the Toyota logo at the annual auto show in Detroit this week. The interlocking relationships between carmakers and their suppliers were the basis of Japan’s vaunted “keiretsu” system pioneered by Toyota. REUTERS/MARK BLINCH The keiretsu system, pioneered by Toyota, was once acclaimed as an ingredient in Japan Inc’s success. Could its days be numbered?

The Mira e:S - e for eco, S for smart - was capable of going 30 kilometers on a liter of gasoline (72 mpg) for a sticker price of just 795,000 yen, or $6,637. And indeed, the car was a hit, super-charging Daihatsu’s earnings. A number of improvements – in manu- facturing, engineering, procurement – went into the car. But the real secret to success, says Kosuke Shiramizu, Daihatsu’s chair- man at the time, lay in taking something out of the company’s business model: the vaunted Japanese “keiretsu” system. Shiramizu, now a Daihatsu advisor, says BURNISHING IMAGE: Daihatsu’s redesigned Mir e:S was cheaper and more economical than many of Daihatsu shaved off roughly $1,000 in the its rivals in the micro-minicar market.
