Breakdown of Energy Consumption
Global energy usage in fiscal 2022 by the Astellas Group amounted to 2,048 terajoules (TJ), for a decrease of 2.0% (41 TJ) over the previous year. The percentage of total energy consumption accounted for by electricity is high because in each region a large amount of electricity is consumed by the operation of air conditioning equipment.
Astellas strives to reduce its energy consumption, including through the continued implementation of energy-saving measures and the introduction of highly efficient equipment.
The coefficient for converting electric energy use into calorific value has been changed from 9.97 GJ/MWh based on Japan's Act on Rationalizing Energy Use to a physical equivalent of 3.6 GJ/MWh. Figures from fiscal 2019 onward are retroactively adjusted.
