Kansai Electric Power Co Inc/The

Kansai Electric Power discloses only limited information on how it governs the alignment of its policy engagement with its climate strategy. It states that it has "a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement" and repeats that it "ensure[s] that [external engagement activities] are reflected in our business strategies," indicating an intention to align lobbying with climate goals. The company also describes an overarching compliance structure - the newly created "Compliance Promotion Headquarters" led by a "Chief Compliance Officer (CCO)" and reporting to the "Compliance Committee" - but the disclosure merely explains that the unit "provides training for compliance, encourages compliance with laws and regulations" and does not specify any procedure for reviewing, approving, or correcting direct or trade-association lobbying positions. Apart from the high-level pledge, we found no evidence of a systematic monitoring process, no discussion of trade-association reviews, and no explicit identification of a board committee or executive who checks whether lobbying aligns with the Paris Agreement. This indicates only limited governance of climate-related lobbying activities.
