Environmental Impacts (as of the end of March 2020)

The avoided annual CO2 emissions from Eligible Green Projects to which proceeds from the MUFG Green Bonds issued in October 2018 are 1,924 tons, which is calculated in consideration of MUFG bank's share of financing for each J-REIT (note1), which possesses eligible green buildings. The annual avoided CO2 emissions are calculated based on the below formula.

 

CO2 emission reductions = Tracked CO2 emissions – Benchmark CO2 emissions

 

Benchmark CO2 emissions = Floor space (m2) × Benchmark energy consumption (note2) (MJ / m2)× Carbon intensity (kg-CO2 / MJ)

  1. MUFG Bank's share of financing for each J-REIT is derived as the proportion of MUFG Bank's loan to the total amount of interest-bearing debt
  2. Benchmark energy consumption is published by Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency (CASBEE)
