Environmental Evaluation by External Parties
Introducing Kioxia Group's environmental awards and evaluation by external parties.
Two Employees of Kioxia Corporation's Yokkaichi Plant Awarded for Efforts to Promote Energy Conservation
In February 2022, two Yokkaichi Plant employees of Kioxia Corporation received an award from Japan’s Energy Conservation Center in recognition of their contribution to energy conservation. The two recipients played a significant role in the installation and operation of energy-saving equipment at the plant and conducted training sessions for younger employees.
Aiming to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society, we will continue our company-wide efforts to promote energy conservation.
