Global warming countermeasures for city ordering work

Last Updated August 23, 2024

The city of Yokohama has set its decarbonization "Zero Carbon Yokohama" by 2050 as its goal for global warming countermeasures.
In construction of Motoichi order, we recommend active utilization such as renewable energy to promote "zero greenhouse gas emission".

How to use renewable energy, etc.

We will introduce examples of specific methods so that you can actively implement global warming countermeasures in Motoichi ordering work.
Construction companies are encouraged to actively consider their use as part of CSR activities and SDGs initiatives.

1 Use of renewable energy in power sources for construction

Global warming countermeasures can be taken by switching to power sources with low greenhouse gas emissions for power sources used in construction and on-site offices.
・Switching the power supply for construction to the renewable energy power menu
 On-site offices and construction power supplies can be switched to a power menu with a high renewable energy ratio prepared by electric power retailers.
 Sir.
・Utilization of renewable energy through installation of solar power generation facilities
 Renewable energy can be introduced by installing solar power generation facilities and wind power generation facilities in on-site offices.
・Green Power Certificates
 By purchasing a green power certificate when using a normal power menu, the amount of electricity purchased is regarded as renewable energy.
 You can do it.

2 Carbon offset by certificates

The amount of carbon dioxide emitted at construction sites can be calculated based on the operating hours of operating equipment (construction machinery, transportation vehicles, commuter vehicles, generators, etc.). This emissions can be offset by purchasing carbon offset credits certified by public institutions.
・Certificates of J-Credit System (Ministry of the Environment, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, etc.)

3 Use of fuels with low carbon dioxide emissions

It is also effective to convert fuel used in generators and construction machinery at construction sites into fuels with less carbon dioxide emissions.
・GTL fuel (abbreviation for Gas to Liquid)
 It is a natural gas-derived product that maintains the same properties as petroleum-derived products and has less environmental impact.
※When you utilize other fuels, you have you confirm the following "about conduct of construction", and please talk with Motoichi ordering section beforehand.

About implementation of construction

When we carry out the above-mentioned global warming measures in Motoichi ordering construction, we discuss with Motoichi ordering section beforehand and list in construction plan and can carry out.
When global warming countermeasures are implemented in civil engineering work ordered by the city (construction designed in accordance with the Yokohama City Civil Engineering Standard Estimation Standard), part of the site environment improvement cost (rate accounting) recorded in the construction contract cost Can be allocated as (Please refer to the standard calculation standard for civil engineering work.)
In addition, it can be subject to additional evaluation in the construction performance evaluation.
