Features

Consulting Service for Low Carbon Projects(Energy Conservation / Renewable Energy)u Background Adopted at COP 21 and going into force in November 2016,
What is JCM?
the Paris Agreement made all countries set GHG reduction targets,
A mechanism supported byJapanese government towhether they are developed or developing. This spurred a rise in theintroduce expensive but quality
momentum towards the promotion of energy conservation and thelow-carbon technologies into
introduction of renewable energies. The Japanese government
partnercountries by providing
announced that it would extend the energy-saving technologies andsubsidies up to 50% for initial
renewable energy techniques of Japanese companies overseas,
costs and to share GHG credits
particularly to developing countries. To achieve this, the government
between two countries
actively supports the spread of the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM)
and Japan’s high-end infrastructure to overseas countries.
u Our technology: Nippon Koei provides supports to private companies and municipal governments looking toenter overseas markets using our long experience and extensive networks in developing countries. Specifically,
we provide various supports that include consultation on available schemes and institutions, investigation on
the feasibility of markets and projects, investigation on systemic and environmental factors related to overseas
market entry, preparing written proposals to obtain subsidies, and support for executing projects.
Overseas markets such as developing countries
Overseas companies(Needs of energy conservation & renewable energy)

 Entering new markets
 Implementing renewable energy projects

Overseas governments(Target of low-carbon and conservation of environment)

 Introduction of energy conservation technologies and services
 City-to-city collaborationRole of Nippon Koei
Being a hub to realize environmental business activities by the companies and local governments in Japan such as energy
conservation and renewable energies projects in developing countries by matching private entities with local governments
and by utilize the supporting scheme as much as possible
Examples of support options: Consultations on supporting scheme and legal systems in overseas countries, researches and investigations, coordination
with overseas governments, effective use of F/S funds and subsidies, and effective use of city-to-city collaboration, and SMEs support programs

Ministry of Environment;
Ministry of Economy, Trade,and Industry; JICA;
international organizations;and others

Effective use of support programs

Japanese companies(Entering overseas markets on their own)

Basic Concept or Summaryu Project preparation: Nippon Koei offers investigation support for executing projects
â Investigations to help reduce the carbon emitted by plants and buildings through energy-saving devices
and renewable energies overseas
â Investigations to help small‐to‐medium‐sized enterprises enter overseas markets
â Consultation services on assistance schemes for the Ministry of the Environment; the Ministry of Economy,
Trade and Industry; JICA; and the Asian Development Bank (ADB), as well as the effective use of subsidies
â Consultation on local legislative systems
â Investigations to form projects through collaboration between cities in Japan and developing countries, andto spread Japanese knowledge
u Project execution: Nippon Koei provides support for project execution
â Support for obtaining subsidies to introduce energy-saving equipment and renewable energy devices inoverseas locations
â Supports for obtaining subsidies to develop technologies related to energy-saving equipment in oversea
locationsâ Support for the development and registration of JCM methodologies and PDDs (project plans)â Support for issuing JCM creditsu Examples of supported low-carbon technologies: turbo refrigerators, absorption refrigerators, once-throughboilers, photovoltaic power generation, biomass power generation, wind power generation, smart grids,
rechargeable batteries, EMS, high-efficiency pumps, water-saving toilet systems, carbonizing furnaces(thermal decomposition furnaces), waste oil recycling systems, railway electrification, and power regeneration
for railroad systems

Effects or Remarks

E-48

u Nippon Koei provides support to calculate GHG reduction amount achieved through the introduction ofenergy-saving devices and renewable energies as well as the economic efficiency.
u Nippon Koei has experience in developing the methodologies to calculate reduction amount under theJCM, registering JCM projects, and issuing credits for JCM projects in many projects and overseas
countries. Notably, we supported a project that introduced high-efficiency centrifugal chillers inIndonesia—and this was the world’s first registered JCM project.
