Investment in ASUENE by JERA Ventures and the Launch of a New Partnership with JERA Cross

We are pleased to announce that JERA Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of the JERA Group, has made an investment in ASUENE Inc., a company that provides cloud-based services for visualizing, reducing, and reporting CO2 emissions.

As the demand for reducing CO2 emissions across entire supply chains grows, there is an increasing need for solutions like ASUENE's "CO2 Visualization Service," which calculates and visualizes emissions to support reduction efforts. ASUENE is a startup offering this service to a wide range of customers both in Japan and internationally.

With this investment, JERA Cross will begin a partnership with ASUENE, aiming to enhance the transparency of our 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy* offerings by leveraging the "CO2 Visualization Service."

*In accordance with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's 'Guidelines for Retail Sales of Electricity' 100% of the required electricity demand is supplied by zero-CO2 emission sources (meaning renewable energy generation facilities and hydrogen power generation facilities), including the environmental value derived from the use of non-fossil certificates. This does not imply that CO2 is not emitted throughout the lifecycle, including the production and transportation of fuel.
