CDP awards A-rank to Nissan for climate change and water security initiatives

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has once again been recognized for its leadership in corporate sustainability by CDP, a global environmental NGO. For the second consecutive year, the company has earned a place on CDP’s A List for both climate change and water security, underscoring its strong commitment to environmental stewardship.

According to the press release, CDP is widely regarded as the global benchmark for corporate environmental information disclosure, and its annual scores and information are widely relied upon by institutional investors and other stakeholders to inform investment and evaluation decisions.

Nissan has achieved “Leadership Level” (A or A-) in climate change for thirteen consecutive years since 2013, and has been included in the A list for water security for seven consecutive years. These consistent achievements reflect Nissan’s dedication to advancing its mid-term environmental action plan, the Nissan Green Program (NGP), and to proactively addressing environmental challenges across its value chain.

As part of its long-term environmental goals, Nissan aims to achieve carbon neutrality across its operations and product lifecycle by 2050. To help realize this vision, the company is expanding its electrified vehicle portfolio—including EVs and e‑POWER models—while increasing the use of renewable energy and implementing ongoing energy-saving measures at its manufacturing plants and offices.

In regions with high water stress, Nissan is also prioritizing efforts to reduce water usage by recycling wastewater, making effective use of rainwater, and contributing solutions to address local water issues.

Guided by its corporate purpose, “Driving innovation to enrich people’s lives,” Nissan is committed to realizing its environmental philosophy of achieving “a symbiosis of people, vehicles, and nature.” The company continues to work toward reducing the environmental impact of its operations and products to levels that can be sustainably absorbed by the natural environment.
