J-Credit: Practical CO2 Reduction Guide for Manufacturers
The J-Credit Scheme allows manufacturers to convert CO2 reductions from energy-efficient equipment installation, renewable energy use, and forest management into certified credits, which can then be applied to GX-ETS compliance or Scope 2 reduction.
