MOL's Approaches

One of the environmental strategies in our midterm management plan, "GEAR UP! MOL," is to reduce CO2 emissions per unit load (ton-mile) by 10% in fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2009. This target applies to ocean-going vessels operated by MOL and domestic consolidated subsidiaries. In order to achieve the targeted reduction, we are developing and adopting new environmental technologies, practicing ECO SAILING, and introducing larger vessels. In fiscal 2010, the company and consolidated subsidiaries achieved reductions of 9.9% and 1.4%, respectively, in part due to improved operating efficiency resulting from better market conditions.

Refer to this environmental data compilation for information on MOL CO2 emissions.
