Due to engine certification issues in the U.S., Hino Motors has suspended vehicle production at its factories
in West Virginia and Ontario, Canada, until Oct. 2021, the company announced Dec. 23. Hino Motors is the
Toyota Group’s truck and bus subsidiary.
The Hino Board of Directors-approved decision was made based on “challenges in the required U.S. engine
certification testing process for new model years of the A09C, J08E, and J05E*engines for North America.”
The Environmental Protection Agency’s Phase 2 greenhouse gas emissions standards cover model years
2021-2027, which means new model year vehicle sales, including the refreshed Hino XL Series (Classes 7 &
8), have also been postponed.

Key Highlights
 Carbon emissions and energy usage: Companies should implement comprehensive carbon reduction plans combining energy
efficiency measures with renewable energy.
 Water usage and management: Businesses should ensure water conservation and management strategies are in place to minimise
wasting water and the effects of their operations on local communities.
 Waste management and reduction: Companies are advised to implement effective waste reduction and recycling practices to make
sure waste is kept to a minimum and everything that can be recycled is.
 Biodiversity and habitat conservation: Firms may wish to develop and implement conservation plans to help preserve local
wildlife: consider forming partnerships with local wildlife and conservation charities to help promote habitat restoration and
biodiversity conservation.
 Pollution and toxic chemical usage: Businesses are advised to collaborate with communities to ensure toxic chemical usage does
not affect local biodiversity sites and wild habitats.
 Supply chain sustainability: Business leaders should look to establish supplier sustainability programmes and guidelines to ensure
their products are ethically sourced and manufactured.
 Climate change adaption and resilience: Businesses are encouraged to develop a climate change action plan and implement
measures aimed at reducing their company's greenhouse gas emissions and energy usage.

The key to addressing the above is having the both the right policy development along with the right data journey from data capturing
through to data ingestion by a reporting tool. Data silos as well as well Microsoft Excel files could challenge ESG teams as part of getting
accurate information for both the regulatory and operational cycles.
