NTT Urban Solutions Group

NTT Urban Solutions Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO Kou Ikeda) is pleased to announce that, as of March 31, 2026, it has completed the switch to electricity derived from virtually renewable energy (hereinafter referred to as "renewable energy") for all electricity used by tenants in all of its properties in Japan and overseas, as well as electricity used at its business locations*1.

Our group has adopted the environmental slogan "Green Future with US" and has been promoting decarbonization initiatives, including the introduction of additionally available renewable energy, to achieve our environmental impact reduction targets of "Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon neutrality by FY2050" and "Scope 1 and 2 carbon neutrality and a 45% reduction in Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon emissions (compared to FY2020) by FY2030."

In switching to renewable energy sources, we began our efforts in FY2021 and achieved 100% renewable energy in the common areas of properties solely owned by our group in FY2022. Since then, in addition to introducing renewable energy sources with additional potential, we have promoted the switching of tenants' electricity usage and implemented energy-saving measures, resulting in 100% renewable energy in a total of 273 properties by the end of FY2025: 63 office buildings, 17 commercial facilities, 7 hotels, 22 rental housing units, 18 overseas properties, 129 domestic business locations, and 17 overseas business locations. This represents an important milestone toward achieving our environmental impact reduction targets.

Our group will maintain 100% renewable energy for the electricity we use going forward, and will also strive to achieve 100% renewable energy in newly developed and acquired properties and business bases we establish. We will further strengthen our efforts toward realizing a decarbonized society by improving the quality of renewable energy through the introduction of additional renewable energy sources and expanding the use of diverse renewable energy sources.

  • Except for electricity used in jointly owned properties and properties owned by our company, including those overseas, which are equivalent to our own share including tenants and for which tenants have concluded electricity contracts, off-grid supplied electricity (such as electricity derived from cogeneration systems and electricity supplied from district heating and cooling operators) is excluded from the 100% renewable energy requirement.
  • Scope 1
    Direct greenhouse gas emissions from fuel use, etc., within our group.
    Scope 2
    Indirect greenhouse gas emissions from the use of electricity and heat purchased by our group.
    Scope 3
    Other indirect greenhouse gas emissions resulting from business activities (such as building construction work and the use of real estate and goods sold)
  • Additionality refers to how a company's chosen procurement method encourages investment in renewable energy and leads to the substitution of fossil fuels, and plays an important role in the expansion of renewable energy.
