Carbon Neutral Initiatives
We, as a global company, are committed to the decarbonized society that the world is now aiming for.
In order to clear the negative impact on the future caused by greenhouse gases, we would like to do what we can do now to develop our company toward a brighter future shared by the world.
Star Seiki aims to be a company who contributes to a de-carbonized society through not only the production process of the robots and other products, but also the procurement of parts and after delivery to customers.
CO2 emission targets 900ｔ (30% = 386 ton reduction from 2017)
CO2 emission targets 643ｔ (50% = 257 ton reduction from 2017)
CO2 emission results 1,286ｔ
＊CO2 emissions（scope 1･2 / Electricity, gasoline, gas）
Installed 1,120 solar panels on the roof of the Izumo Plant (Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture), which will generate 27.1% of the plant's average power consumption in 2020. Plans to add more solar panels in the future. We aim to double power generation 66% to generate our own power.
As part of our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we are actively working to reduce the amount of paper used at all of our domestic business sites to less than half by digitizing various internal forms and documents, as well as instruction manuals distributed to customers.
From July 2022, all electricity at the Star Seiki head office factory and employee dormitory will be converted to renewable energy
All company vehicles used at Star Seiki will be replaced with hybrid and EV vehicles.。
Energy-saving adsorption (air consumption 80% and power consumption 10% reduced)
Servo sleep function (servo sleep when stopped Reduced power consumption 17.5%)
Optimized mode operation (molding cycle automatically linked / servo OFF when stopped)
Hand chucking parts, which are always attached to the robot, are often heavier than the product being conveyed.Lightweight parts are expected to reduce power consumption by reducing the load caused by the robot's mobility.
