Efforts towards the SDGs: Introducing green electricity
Tokyo Midtown Clinic to make all electricity used greener
As part of our efforts to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)*¹2023 and to help create a more sustainable society, our clinic introduced the Green Power Supply Service *².
Through this initiative, all the electricity used in our facility has been switched to renewable energy.
By introducing this service, we aim to reduce the amount of CO2 (carbon dioxide) emitted by electricity use, and also to contribute to solving environmental issues, which are considered particularly important in the SDGs.
