Mitsubishi Corporation has said that it regards achieving a decarbonised society as a ‘critical corporate priority’, as it seeks to halve its emissions by 2030 and achieve net zero by 2050.
The Japanese firm made the call in its latest Sustainability Report, which was published at the end of March.
As well as its own operations, Mitsubishi will contribute to societal decarbonisation through avoiding emissions in external investments, via a programme valued at approximately 1.2 trillion yen under its current midterm strategy.
Mitsubishi is expanding its renewable energy business both in Japan and overseas in line with its decarbonisation goals, with renewable energy generation standing at 4.1 GW as of September 2025, including projects under construction.
In Europe, it is advancing its efforts through its involvement with Eneco, a Dutch integrated energy company, which has operations in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. Eneco manages approximately 2.8 GW of renewable energy assets (as of March 2025), and is aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2035.
