The review aimed to verify the validity and transparency of the methodology for calculating the contribution of resale service reduction. The updated methodology, revised in April 2026, focuses on product re-distribution and extended usage periods, evaluating the environmental impact suppression effects associated with new resource extraction and manufacturing.
