  • *1  Previous years' figures have been revised to improve accuracy.
  • *2  For consistency with our response to the CDP, we changed the calculation to 1GWh=3.6TJ instead of using the primary energy conversion factor for electricity in the Energy Conservation Law when posting data for FY2023, and also revised the figures for previous years.
  • *3  In order to meet the needs of various stakeholders, the figures are shown in both joules and watt-hours.
    There is no need to add them together.
