Our "Zeroboard" product has been adopted by over 2,400 companies in the year and a half since its release, and we have over 100 alliance partners who provide reduction solutions that go beyond visualization.

In addition to calculating emission amount at the individual company level, there is a growing need to calculate carbon footprints (CFP: GHG emission amount by product and Service ) in order to achieve reductions across the entire supply chain. We have participated in the formulation of the "Carbon Footprint Guidelines" announced by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry since its inception (*1), and have also cooperated in the demonstration of CFP data linkage within supply chains led by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of the Environment. To achieve data linkage while ensuring transparency in supply chains spanning overseas, we have participated in the social implementation of CFP data linkage within actual supply chains by PCAT, hosted by WBCSD (*2). Through these demonstrations both domestically and internationally, we have worked hard to achieve highly granular "calculation and visualization" and reliable "data linkage" for decarbonization throughout the entire supply chain, primarily in the Manufacturing industry.

Recently, we have been selected for a subsidized project by the Low Carbon Investment Promotion Organization, which provides subsidies from the Ministry of Economy, Industry and Industry, and have been commissioned to develop calculation and data linkage applications for CFP, etc., which are part of the domestic data linkage initiative "Ouranos Ecosystem" (*3).We are also involved in building systems that enable the automobile and storage battery supply chain to comply with EU Battery Regulation(*4).
Also in the automotive industry, we have been commissioned to carry out a CFP performance calculation project with Tier 1/2 companies involved in automotive parts in Mie Prefecture, and are working to create a model case for CFP calculation and reduction support in the automotive parts supply chain.
In other, we are working with the Japan Automobile Dealers Association and others on joint research to identify Issue and propose reduction measures for decarbonizing car dealerships, and are promoting the visualization of GHG emission amount from car dealerships using " Zeroboard ."
In 2023 alone, we will participate in several of these projects and expand the use of " Zeroboard" as a fundamental system for promoting decarbonization in the automotive industry.

By exhibiting at JAPAN MOBILITY SHOW 2023, the largest event to date, we hope to use this opportunity to let more people know about GHG emissions calculation / Visualization solution"Zeroboard," particularly its CFP calculation function that complies with EU Battery Regulation(*4), and to use it as a platform to promote the significance and purpose of decarbonization and the need to address it.
