Why do companies procure Japan I-RECs?
Japanese I-RECs enable credible renewable electricity claims within Japan for compliance
purposes. These I-RECs are used to:
Report market-based Scope 2 emissions
Possible or mandatory under reporting standards like GHG Protocol, CDP, RE100, SBTI, and
more.
Without I-RECs, companies must report using Japan's residual mix carbon intensity,
currently
0.4837 tCO₂/MWh
.
Satisfy investor ESG mandates
Meet institutional investor requirements and sustainability fund eligibility criteria to
qualify for funding at better terms.
Meet customer demand for sustainability
Back defensible renewable electricity claims with registry-verified, audit-ready
cancellations.
Fund renewable generation
Channel capital to renewable energy producers through certificate revenue streams,
making further construction more economically viable.

Japan's I-REC market is still finding footing alongside existing domestic certificate schemes. For buyers with Japanese operations, that regulatory complexity is a compliance risk. Soldera's platform tracks the evolving landscape so your procurement stays correctly structured as the rules develop.
