Financial Highlights
CO2 emissions per unit of electricity sales volume
Kyushu Electric Power engages in measures to prevent global warming from both
the supply side (activation of nuclear power generation, development and intro-
duction of renewable energy, etc.) and as a user (our own efforts to conserve and
reduce energy use, etc.). However, our nuclear power plants, which do not emit
CO2, have been shut down since the Great East Japan Earthquake. As a result,
our CO2 emissions per volume of sales are up 70% compared to pre-earthquake
(fiscal 2010) levels.
Geothermal Power Facility Capacity
[Our percentage of the total for all electric utilities]
Kyushu Electric’s geothermal power facilities, which include the Hatchoubaru
Geothermal Power Station—one of the largest in Japan—account for around 40%
of the country’s total, and electricity generated and purchased is more than 50% of
the total for Japan. As geothermal power emits essentially no CO2 and is a clean and
stable energy source that is unaffected by fuel costs, we plan to continue proactively
developing this power, including through Group companies. We will do so while
maintaining harmony with the local community and taking into overall consideration
the technical aspects of such generation, as well as its economic performance and
location environments.

Promoting Diversity
Recognizing that human resources are the wellspring that enhances corporate value, we promote diversity in our working environment to ensure that all people can work enthusi-
astically and maximize their individual capabilities, regardless of gender, age, rank or other factors. As part of these efforts, from fiscal 2007 we have enhanced our comprehensive
activities based on the pillars of supporting female career development, raising awareness and reforming the organizational culture, and supporting a balance between work and
home life, and we are steadily expanding the range of career possibilities open to women. In December 2014, we formulated the "Action Plan for Promoting Women to Manage-
ment Positions." This plan sets the target of doubling the number of women newly promoted to management positions, compared with the number for the past five years. This is
part of our efforts to further cultivate female employees.20152007
