To achieve "2050 Zero Emission Tokyo," the Tokyo Metropolitan Government is promoting various measures to improve energy efficiency and decarbonize buildings, which account for over 70% of CO2 emissions in the prefecture. Primarily for new housing, the "Building Environmental Report System" is in place, mandating major house builders and others to ensure insulation and energy-saving performance and install solar power generation equipment.

Now, in addition to businesses subject to the report system, we are newly recruiting businesses that promote the spread of environmentally friendly new housing as "Tokyo Eco Builders." Through collaborative information dissemination with businesses, we will expand the opportunities to promote housing with high environmental performance.

Furthermore, businesses implementing particularly effective initiatives will be awarded the "Tokyo Eco Builders Award Leading Company Prize" and will be promoted to Tokyo residents through collaborations in awareness and educational content produced by the prefecture.

We look forward to applications from businesses for Tokyo Eco Builders and the Tokyo Eco Builders Award to promote environmentally friendly housing and your company.
