e-dash Inc., which provides the CO2 emissions visualization and reduction service platform “e-dash,” has today begun collaboration with Mizuho Bank, Ltd. on Mizuho Bank’s “GHG Visualization Impact Finance”, which supports medium-sized and small business clients from the first step in their decarbonization efforts.
2050年のカーボンニュートラル実現に向け、様々な産業・セクターが温室効果ガス排出量の開示・削減に取り組む中、企業の円滑な脱炭素化を支援し、サプライチェーン全体の脱炭素化や産業の構造転換を支える仕組みの重要性が高まっています。
In this environment, in February 2024, Mizuho Bank, Mizuho Innovation Frontier Co., Ltd., Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and e-dash signed a capital and business alliance agreement with the aim of not only visualizing customers’ emissions, but also building a system that supports the decarbonization of the entire supply chain and the structural transformation of industry. The development of this product is part of the development of new solutions based on this capital and business alliance.

サプライチェーン全体の脱炭素化には、大企業だけでなく中小企業の取り組みも必要です。中小企業の脱炭素化への関心は日に日に高まっていますが、専門的な知識や人材の不足、どの程度の取り組みが必要なのかわからないといった課題を抱えている企業が多いのが現実です。
The features of this product are: 1) Using “イーダッシュ” to easily and accurately visualize emissions and set reduction targets, and 2) supporting customers by considering ways to achieve reduction targets through monitoring during the loan period.
Through this product, we will support small and medium-sized enterprises in their decarbonization efforts from the first step to the realization of emission reductions, creating a positive impact on climate change. The framework for this product has received a letter of opinion from Japan Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (JCR) stating that it conforms to the Ministry of the Environment’s “Basic Concept of Impact Finance.”
Going forward, through our collaboration with Mizuho Bank on “GHG Visualization Impact Finance,” we will support the decarbonization of our small and medium-sized enterprise clients and contribute to Japan’s achievement of carbon neutrality.
