本研究は、インドの製造業とIT企業が採用するScope 1、2、3排出削減戦略を分析。製造業はエネルギー効率、再生可能エネルギー、循環経済を重視し、IT企業はグリーンデータセンターやサプライヤー関与を重視。BRSR報告書やCDP開示などのデータから、Tata SteelやInfosysなどの大手企業がSBTとRE100を通じて排出原単位を20-45%削減したことを示す。高資本コストやサプライチェーン複雑性などの課題も指摘し、炭素価格メカニズムやScope 3開示義務化を提言する。
English
This study analyzes Scope 1, 2, and 3 emission reduction strategies in Indian manufacturing and IT firms. Manufacturing focuses on energy efficiency, renewables, and circular economy; IT emphasizes green data centers and supplier engagement. Using BRSR, CDP, and company reports (2024-2026), it shows leaders like Tata Steel and Infosys achieved 20-45% emission intensity cuts via SBTs and RE100. Challenges include high capital costs and supply-chain complexity. Recommends stronger carbon pricing, mandatory Scope 3 disclosure, and green finance incentives.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract India has committed to reaching net-zero emissions by 2070, making corporate carbon footprint reduction a national priority. This study examines the strategies adopted by Indian manufacturing and information technology (IT) companies to lower Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Manufacturing firms focus on energy efficiency, renewable energy adoption, process optimization, and circular economy practices, while IT companies emphasize green data centers, renewable-powered campuses, remote work models, and Scope 3 supplier engagement. Drawing on secondary data from BRSR reports, CDP disclosures, NITI Aayog, and company sustainability reports (2024–2026), the analysis reveals that leading firms such as Tata Steel, Mahindra & Mahindra, TCS, and Infosys have achieved 20–45% emission intensity reductions through science-based targets and RE100 commitments. However, challenges including high capital costs, supply-chain complexities, and limited green finance persist. The findings underscore that integrated strategies combining technology, policy incentives, and stakeholder collaboration are essential for scalable decarbonization. The paper recommends stronger carbon pricing mechanisms, mandatory Scope 3 disclosure, and green finance incentives to accelerate India’s industrial transition toward net zero.
