Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM)

  • Benefit from up to 40% cost reduction on modules and certain BOS articles
  • The Joint Crediting Mechanism is a project-based crediting program initiated by the Government of Japan to facilitate the diffusion of low-carbon technologies in 17 different countries
  • The Japanese Ministry of the Environment provides the subsidy for the PV installation and in return they receive part of the carbon credits* generated by the project

*One carbon credit represents the right to emit a one ton of CO2.
