The Board of Directors of the Company chaired by the President and Chief Executive Officer, sees climate risks and opportunities as key issues and topics concerning corporate management and is responsible for overseeing and deliberating on them. The Board of Director meets monthly in principle to discuss and examine key management issues including those concerning climate change based on the medium-term management plan, thereby supervising the execution of duties by Directors and Executive Officers.

The Company is oriented toward management from a long-term perspective and established the Sustainability Committee to respond to environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues in corporate management. The Committee, chaired by Deputy Chief Executive Officer (Sustainability management), is tasked with identifying key issues (materiality), setting key performance indicators (KPIs), monitoring and supervising the progress of investigations by sub-committees for the ESG elements (Environmental Subcommittee, Social Subcommittee, and Governance Subcommittee), checking achievements against KPIs and reviewing plans, and reporting to the Board of Directors on these topics (twice annually, in principle).

Climate risks and opportunities will be also handled under this framework as a key issue, and the Sustainability Committee will monitor developments.

Given the significance of the potential impact that climate change may have on the business of the Company as well as long-term uncertainty, the Company conducts scenario analyses as a process to identify and assess climate risks and opportunities relevant to its business.
Of the five businesses, scenario analyses were conducted for two of the businesses in fiscal 2022: special purpose truck and fluid. In fiscal 2023, analyses were conducted for the remaining three businesses: parking systems, industrial machinery and environmental systems, and aircraft.

The Company identified climate risks and opportunities  based on two assumed scenarios for the world outlook: the 1.5/2.0 degrees Celsius scenario of globally achieving net zero by 2050 and the 4.0 degrees Celsius scenario of facing more extreme weather events and more serious disasters due to changing climate as a result of prioritizing economic activities.

The specific processes and results of the scenario analysis are provided below.

In addition, the results of these climate-related scenario analyses are reflected in our medium-term management plan [SG-2026], which began in fiscal 2024, and are being implemented in the Business strategies of each business division.

With regard to risks associated with business operations, the Company established the ShinMaywa Group Risk Management Rules. Under these Rules, each of the divisions and Group companies is taking the initiative to build risk management systems suitable for their business characteristics. In addition, the Head Office monitors the status of risk management by those divisions and group companies and implements company-wide measures against risks, including disaster and financial risks, thereby establishing risk management systems.

The Sustainability Committee checks the establishment of risk management systems and activities in the ShinMaywa Group based on information reported by the Head Office and business divisions. The Committee also identifies company-wide key risks in light of their impact on business operations and reports such information to the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors on a regular basis to ensure the effectiveness of risk management in the group.

気候変動については、気候変動が当社事業にもたらす潜在的な影響の大きさと長期的な不確実性に鑑み、当社事業に関わる気候関連リスク・機会を特定・評価するプロセスとして、2022年度に初めて2つの事業を対象にシナリオ分析を行いました。このシナリオ分析で明らかになった気候関連リスク・機会のうち、特に重大なものは、重大リスクとして上記の全社的なリスクマネジメントの枠組みの中で管理していきます。

当社は現在、2030年までの中期的な温室効果ガス削減目標として「エネルギー使用に伴うCO₂排出総量を2030年度までに38％削減（2017年度比）」という目標を掲げています。これは、2017年度の当社のエネルギー使用に伴うCO₂排出量42,720 t-CO2eを2030年度の実績で26,486 t-CO2eにまで減少させるものです。
また、過去のScope1、2の排出量実績（単体）は下表のとおりで、2023年度からは主な国内の連結子会社からの排出量も算定・加算しました。 Scope３についても排出量（単体）を算定しました。
