Wako Co., Ltd. (President: Shuntaro Ishii; head office: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; hereafter “Wako”), a group company of Seiko Holdings Corporation (Chairman & Group CEO, CCO: Shinji Hattori; head office: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Japan; hereafter “Seiko Holdings”), haフレッシュカジノ 仮想通貨igned an agreement with Fuyo General Lease Co., Ltd. (President & Chief Executive Officer: Yasunori Tsujita; head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan; hereafter “Fuyo Lease”) to obtain FIT Non-Fossil Certificates※1 for the environmental value of renewable energy that Fuyo Lease supplies to Wako.
From March 2022, the Wako main building, an iconic structure at the Ginza 4-chome intersection in Tokyo, will convert its electric power supply to renewable electricity. The power will be generated by the Namie Sakai No. 1 Solar Power Plant operated by the Fuyo Lease Group. Namie Town in Fukushima Prefecture is using clean energy to support its reconstruction following the Great East Japan earthquake. Significantly, Wako will not simply convert to renewable electricity, but will purchase FIT Non-Fossil Certificates, which authenticate and confirm the environmental value of electricity generated from renewable energy sources.
- FIT (Feed-in Tariff) Non-Fossil Certificate provides an assessment of the environmental value of electricity generated from renewable energy sources (those that do not emit CO2) based on the local power utilities’ standard electricity rate menu. In addition, FIT-derived Non-Fossil Certificates will be able to comply with RE100 (an international initiative aimed at using 100% renewable energy for all business activities) by adding tracking information (power source type, location, etc.) for power plants through the non-fossil certificate tracking program conducted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
