Fundamental Approach
We work to mitigate our impact on climate change by promoting energy-saving initiatives.
Introduction of LED Lighting
Use of LED lighting, which is brighter than incandescent lamps and fluorescents and uses less electricity, helps to significantly reduce power consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, as LED lighting is long lasting, it is possible to not only save the trouble of maintenance such as changing bulbs, but also reduce waste and effectively use resources. In princple, all Hulic’s development projects use LED lighting. We are also sequentially switching over to high-efficiency lighting and LED lighting at our existing buildings as part of energy efficiency renovation work.
Introduction of LED Lighting System
Hulic has realized a lighting conditions preferable for customer work style as well as a significant level of greenhouse gas emissions reduction through energy saving by adjusting the level of LED lighting automatically with daylight and motion sensors.
Introducing Low Energy Consumption Facilities to Nursing Homes
(Hospitalment Musashino)
(Charm Suite YOTSUYA)
We have an environmentally friendly plan for aiming to help realize a sustainable society including but not limited to LED lighting, highly efficient water heater, equipping with solar panels on their rooftops to provide electric power to the common areas and others. Additionally, we are keen on using of wood in materials, adopting roof greening, keeping natural lighting, natural ventilation system and installing panel heating and cooling system, to name a few.
Initiative for Green Lease Contract and Introduction of Green Lease Clauses
We promote a initiative for green lease contract with our customers and have concluded a green lease agreement with our tenant, Ito- Yokado Co., Ltd. at the Ito-Yokado Kawasaki store. This is a green lease contract with retrofits, where we as the property owner side implement energy-saving retrofits and the tenant returns a part of the benefits of the reduced electricity cost to us when those benefits belong to the tenant.This initiative are beneficial both for the tenant and us. In addition, we introduce green lease clauses in contracts of some owned properties and will make efforts to mitigate environmental burden with our customers. We will make efforts to mitigate environmental burden with our customers.
Customer Outreach
We believe that customer engagement is important in responding to climate change, and our initiatives for decarbonization, we conducted explanatory sessions with our customers—focusing on office tenants—to discuss our commitment to the environment as building owners. Going forward, we will continue outreach to customers and work toward more energy efficiency.
