The 2022 fiscal year is our second year of existence. Our priority for the first year was on building
the organizational foundations. Structures are now in place enabling us to initiate a variety ofactivities and we intend to launch full-scale program implementation.
Our particular focus will be on publishing scenarios and policy proposals developed jointly with
the U.S.-based Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, initiating governance research, andgetting started with information dissemination and communications. Keeping an eye on climate
policy trends, we will take timely action in implementing our programs and expand our networks,
through dialogue with stakeholders. Through our efforts, we aim to build momentum for
decarbonization and accelerate the energy transition in Japan.
