transactions, and supporting decarbonization of corporate customers nationwide, mainly small and medium-sized enterprises. We will accelerate this. *“Renewable energy” in the text includes actual renewable energy. ■About our company’s electricity retail business for corporations In 2016, we began providing retail electricity services for corporations based on the power procurement know-how we had cultivated through our “condominium bulk electricity reception service” business, which we launched in 2004. We are working to increase the ratio of renewable energy, including through non-fossil certificate trading, and are currently supporting the decarbonization of our customers by supplying electricity to approximately 7,500 small and medium-sized corporations and local governments. Until now, our goal was to achieve a real renewable energy ratio of 100% by 2030, but as the importance of realizing a decarbonized society is increasing, we are working to improve the ratio ahead of schedule, and are currently working on increasing the ratio. We supply electricity with an effective renewable energy ratio of 100% to customers who use our services. In response to the government’s “Carbon Neutral
Declaration,” momentum toward decarbonization is increasing, especially among local governments and large corporations. In addition, in recent years, there has been a need to reduce Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions (supply chain emissions), so small and medium-sized enterprises included in the supply chains of large companies are also required to respond to decarbonization. It’s wanted. On the other hand, small and medium-sized enterprises, which are exposed to a harsh business environment due to the recent rise in prices, often find it difficult to make additional investments solely for the purpose of decarbonization. Our company, whose mission is to “not make decarbonization a difficult problem,” has received many comments from people who say, “I want to reduce the cost of electricity, but I also want to aim for decarbonization.” We are working on multifaceted support, including supplying low-cost electricity with a 100% renewable energy ratio and contributing to increasing corporate value through decarbonization. ■Background of the decision to introduce it to Hokuriku Mazda Hokuriku Mazda is a directly managed Mazda dealership that has 19 stores in the three prefectures of Ishikawa, Toyama, and Fukui, delivering “driving joy” to many customers in the Hokuriku region. We operate our business in partnership with the local community, and aim to contribute to the local community by conducting fundraising activities as part of the “Ganbaro Hokuriku” campaign after the 2020 Noto Peninsula Earthquake in January 2024. . Regarding decarbonization efforts, Mazda has stated that “by 2050, we aim to achieve carbon neutrality throughout the life cycle of cars through initiatives across the entire supply chain.” Hokuriku Mazda is also playing a role in this. In the automobile industry, attention is being focused on environmentally friendly vehicles such as EVs, but it is thought that dealers will be required to step up their efforts in order to achieve carbon neutrality throughout the supply chain. Furthermore, as consumers become more environmentally conscious, it is expected that
decarbonization efforts will have an impact on consumers’ choices of companies and brands. For this reason, by supplying electricity to Hokuriku Mazda, we will be able to reduce the company’s
electricity-related costs and at the same time help achieve 100% renewable energy usage. Through the continued supply of green energy, we aim to contribute to the decarbonization of Hokuriku Mazda, the automobile industry, and the Hokuriku region as a whole. Going forward, we will continue to contribute to the realization of “unconscious decarbonization” throughout Japan by supplying energy that can both decarbonize and contribute to cost reduction to corporations in various regions and industries. ■Comment from Ryosuke Sakai, President and Representative Director of Hokuriku Mazda Co., Ltd. As a member of the Mazda Group, we are taking on the challenge of Mazda’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality across the entire life cycle of cars by 2050. Currently, we are proposing environmentally friendly vehicle models such as hybrids and EVs to our customers, but we also felt the need to strengthen our contribution to carbon neutrality in our corporate activities as well. With the supply of green energy from Regil, we are able to achieve a net renewable energy ratio of 100% for the electricity we use at our offices, and as a result, we are able to significantly reduce Scope 2 emissions. We believe that this also has an important meaning. With the cooperation of Resil, we will continue to realize decarbonized management and strive to become carbon neutral by 2050. ■Overview of “Green Energy Business”/Contact information ・Details page:
