Zeroboard Co., Ltd. (Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Michitaka Tokeji, hereinafter referred to as the Company), which provides the GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions calculation and
visualization solution “Zeroboard” We are pleased to announce the release of the “Carbon Credit Trading Function” developed under the Innovation Creation Project 2020 Grant Project (*) and the start of collaboration with enechain Co., Ltd. and Fager Co., Ltd.
At the same time, we announced our carbon credit handling policy. Going forward, we will continue to support the use of carbon credits from a customer perspective and enhance our support system to realize a decarbonized society.
Background of feature release
With the threat of climate change becoming more apparent and the need to peak out GHG emissions as soon as possible, many countries and companies are being forced to take action to reduce GHG emissions. In recent years, in addition to companies’ voluntary reduction efforts, an increasing number of companies have claimed to offset emissions through the use of carbon credits, but there have also been reports questioning the reduction effectiveness of specific credits. Additionally, interest in carbon credits is increasing in Japan as well, as multiple carbon credit markets have been established. Recently, we have received many inquiries from client companies regarding carbon credits, so we have decided to make public the functions we have already developed and our handling policy. About carbon credit trading function
“Zeroboard” is equipped with functions that enable matching, trading, and management of carbon credits. This function was developed in 2021 with the support of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government’s “Reiwa 2nd Generation Innovation Creation Project 2020 Grant Project” as “Development of an Environmental Value Trading System.” This feature only provides one-way matching in which the customer company of “Zeroboard” is the final buyer (the person who implements the credit revocation or enjoys its effects).
