Tokyo, January 16, 2024 — 花蜜直播app, Ltd. announced today its first transition bond issuance as a means of financing via the Master Framework,* which the company established in November 2023 as the first fund-raising framework of its kind worldwide.
Transition bonds are bonds issued for the purpose of financing projects based on a long-term transition strategy aimed at reducing corporate greenhouse gas emissions. Funds raised through public offerings of these bonds domestically within Japan will be used for projects related to the clean transport and storage of hydrogen and clean energy utilization of hydrogen. Specific solutions include liquefied hydrogen carriers, liquefied hydrogen storage tanks, and hydrogen gas turbines for power generation. Through the provision of such decarbonization solutions, 花蜜直播app will promote the transition to carbon neutrality not only within its own organization, but among its customers as well, thus contributing to the early realization of worldwide carbon neutrality.
