Since our inception, Hitachi has grown with our customers while working under the philosophy "contribute to society through the development of superior, original technology and products".

Our long-term plan "Environmental Vision 2025", which we started in December 2007, sets out our goal of helping to reduce CO2 emissions by 100 million tons a year by 2025. We aim to achieve this with our wide range of environmentally superior Eco-Products* and the strengthening of our environmental businesses.

The Hitachi Group recognizes the critical importance of the fields of environment and energy conservation, and we are committed to promoting environmental value through our technologies in order to achieve a sustainable global environment.
