Cap, Covered Facilities, Cap Settings
Cap (Total emissions allowed for the covered sector) was designed
to enable Tokyo to achieve "-25% by 2020" emission target
Setting cap on emissions from 1,400 facilities (Mainly commercialbldgs.), accounting for 20% of Tokyo’s total emissions
Under the cap, each building is obligated to reduce emissions by
6 or 8 % (first period) and 15 or 17% in the second period
1st period

Base-yearemissions（2010-2014)

2nd period（2015-2019)15% reduction

Tokyo Green Building Program

Rating and disclosure system for sustainable design

Coverage: Covering 40% of new buildings
Newly planned large buildings (over 5,000 sq. meters)
Requirement: Mandatory reporting, Minimum energy standard
Submit sustainable design plan with its ratings
Satisfy Tokyo's energy standard (higher than the National)
Rating & Disclosure:
12 items in 4 categories including "Energy. Natural
Environment, Water/Material, and Heat Island category"
Rated results are disclosed on the TMG website
Labeling and Energy Efficient Certificate Programs
have been developed based on this GB program
Incentive system in the urban planning is effectivelyworking

Carbon Reduction Reportingfor Small and Medium Facilities
Target:Small & medium emitters not covered by the Tokyo C&T
Requirement: Mandatory reporting
Reporting annual CO2 emissions & their plan for reductions
Disclose on the TMG website
Over 34,000 facilities are reporting
including 10,000 volunteers
Launched Voluntary Benchmarking Program
22 building-use categories in 7 ratings
