Green Policy Innovation

Concentrating on Developing and Providing Green IT

With environmental issues like that of global warming becoming increasingly serious, all enterprises are being required to engage in stronger environmental management. This is making it even more important to ensure that in advancing measures to arrest global warming the power consumption of IT equipment should be reduced along with the environmental load imposed by the use of sophisticated IT.

The Fujitsu Group, deploying a total IT business ranging from PCs, servers and other IT equipment to complete IT solutions, recognizes one of its major responsibilities to society as the development and provision of Green IT that can contribute to the reduction of its customers' environmental load.

It is therefore intensifying efforts in this approach.

Supporting Customers in Reducing Their Environmental Load

In December 2007, the Fujitsu Group announced its Green Policy Innovation project to support customers in reducing their environmental load.

This project uses the environmental technology and know-how possessed by the Group to provide Green IT that reduces the environmental load imposed by customers and society, including the emission of CO2. In promoting this project, the aim is to reduce CO2 emissions by 7 million tons or more(*1) over the four years from fiscal 2007 through fiscal 2010.

In the Fujitsu Group, environmental considerations are being strengthened at every stage of our business activities, from research and development, through design, manufacture, purchasing and distribution up to recycling when the product life cycle is over. Using the know-how acquired in these environmental activities, we will be working to develop and provide IT equipment and solutions that can contribute to lower environmental load.

In fiscal 2007, reductions of 60,000 tons of CO2 emissions were projected from the provision of IT infrastructure, and a further 680,000 tons from IT solutions. These targets were filled on schedule.
