Asuene Inc. has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with key ESG and decarbonization organizations in Taiwan to establish the Taiwan-Japan Carbon Alliance. This industry collaboration platform aims to advance international carbon management efforts. A total of eight organizations from Taiwan and Japan will participate in the alliance. Together, they will promote comprehensive initiatives such as the measurement of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across Scope 1–3, ESG disclosures, policy dialogues, and supply chain engagement—with the goal of building a practical foundation for ESG and decarbonization-driven management across Asia.

Background of the “Taiwan-Japan Carbon Alliance”

Amid accelerating global regulatory pressures around decarbonization, companies are now expected to measure GHG emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3 with greater accuracy to meet evolving ESG disclosure requirements. Japan and Taiwan, in particular, share export-driven economic structures centered around manufacturing industries such as semiconductors, electronic components, precision machinery, and textiles. These industries are supported by deeply interconnected supply chains that extend across Southeast Asia.

Given this structure, companies in both countries urgently require a unified approach to measure GHG emissions across their entire supply chains and to align their ESG initiatives with international standards.

In response to these shared challenges, Asuene has formed a practical, implementation-focused alliance in partnership with key public and private sector players in Taiwan. The alliance will serve as a multi-functional platform for decarbonized management—supporting system implementation, cross-border data integration, policy engagement, and public awareness activities. By bringing together the decarbonization expertise of both Japan and Taiwan, the alliance also aims to accelerate the transition toward a low-carbon, sustainable economy across Asia.

Key Initiatives under the Taiwan-Japan Carbon Alliance

The Taiwan-Japan Carbon Alliance will undertake the following joint initiatives:

Support the implementation of carbon management platforms for Taiwanese companies to measure and manage GHG emissions

Provide guidance for aligning with international standards such as CSRD, CBAM, SBTi, and PCAF

Facilitate collaboration between Japanese and Taiwanese companies to share decarbonization and ESG expertise and expand cross-border business opportunities

Engage in policy and public dialogue through proactive communication and joint proposals

These initiatives will be rolled out in phases by the participating companies and organizations. Looking ahead, the alliance aims to grow beyond Japan and Taiwan to serve as a decarbonization platform across broader global markets, including Southeast Asia.

Asuene will continue leveraging the strengths of its cloud-based solution, ASUENE, which supports all-in-one GHG emissions measurement, reduction, and reporting across borders. Through this, we remain committed to advancing sustainability-driven business practices and contributing to the realization of a decarbonized global society.
