●About our renewable energy consulting services

Japan has set a target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 26% compared to FY2013 by 2030, and seeks to achieve carbon neutrality by eliminating greenhouse gas emissions entirely by 2050.At the global level, interest is growing in environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) investment and in RE100, an international federation of businesses seeking to use electric power generated entirely from renewable energy sources. In addition to initiatives based on the feed-in tariff (FIT) system, we’re making progress in areas like energy self-consumption, power purchase agreement (PPA) models, and adoption of storage cell systems. In addition, we’re supporting the use of green power certificates and the J-Credit system and the issue of fossil fuel free certification as a way to secure environmental value.
Our specialists in planning, development, and operations and maintenance related to solar power, geothermal power, and other renewable energy sources provide their expertise with the perspective and interests of our corporate clients in mind.
