 *1 JCM stands for the Joint Crediting Mechanism, and it is a bilateral cooperation mechanism that developing countries and Japan collaborate
   on GHG emission reductions projects and share the reduction result.
   For further information, please refer to the official website of JCM here

 *2 In order to support the implementation of candidate JCM projects, Ministry of the Environment, Japan has launched the “JCM Model Projects”.
   The purpose of this model project is to financially support the implementation of projects which reduce GHG emissions by utilizing leading
   decarbonizing technologies in developing countries, and in return seeks to acquire JCM credits for achievement of Japan’s GHG emission
   reduction target.

 *3 “Financing Programme to Demonstrate Decarbonization Technology for Realizing Co-Innovation” aims to create innovation beneficial for both
   Japan and developing countries through collaboration (co-innovation). The purpose of this financing program is creating a zero-carbon
   society through renovation and dissemination of high quality decarbonizing technologies and products, which are some of Japan’s strength,
   by means of systemization and packaging of multiple technologies, and by encouraging uptake of such technologies, in addition to bringing
   benefits to the technology developers in Japan as a result.

 *4 “Pilot Project for Comprehensive Support throughout the Whole Hydrogen Supply Chain Abroad” will subsidize a part of the demonstration project
   to produce hydrogen derived from renewable energy in third party countries (such as Australia) where renewable energy is abundant such as
   solar power generation and wind power generation and to transport and utilize in partner countries (such as Pacific Island countries).
