The IHI Group deliberates on and determines approaches and important matters concerning climate change countermeasures through the Environment Committee, a Group-wide body. In fiscal 2021, the Group established a task force comprising members from different divisions to promote initiatives to become carbon-neutral throughout the entire value chain. Until fiscal 2023, the Administration Division and Corporate Planning Division served as the secretariat to the task force, but in fiscal 2024, the secretariat was consolidated within the General Affairs Division to carry out these activities more efficiently and accelerate their implementation. Reports on the activities of the task force are made to the Environment Committee, which deliberates on them. The details of discussions by the Environment Committee are reported to the ESG Management Promotion Committee, and feedback received from management is disseminated throughout the Group. Amid discussions at these meetings and committees, matters related to important management decision-making are deliberated on by the Management Committee, which serves as the decision-making body for management execution, and are then submitted to the Board of Directors.
