TOKYO--September 20, 2017--カジノオンライン,Internet Initiative Japan Inc(IIJ), andMitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities Co, Ltd ,today announced that パラダイスカジノ Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR) Energy Efficient Datacenter Project (*1) was officially registered as a Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM *2) project by パラダイスカジノ JCM's Joint Committee held on July 31, 2017 This project is パラダイスカジノ first JCM project to be registered in Lao PDR パラダイスカジノ project is expected to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emission by 2,269 tons between 2017 and 2020 and we plan to apply for carbon credits once パラダイスカジノ demonstration period ends in February 2018

Under パラダイスカジノ JCM established between Lao PDR and Japan, パラダイスカジノ three companies along with パラダイスカジノ New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) are currently conducting パラダイスカジノ Lao PDR Energy Efficient Data Center Project demonstrating パラダイスカジノ evaluation of パラダイスカジノ effectiveness for greenhouse gas emission reductions by パラダイスカジノ construction and operation of modular-type datacenters in パラダイスカジノ Lao PDR (パラダイスカジノ relevant press-releases have been previously announced on January 26, 2016 and November 30, 2016)

パラダイスカジノ IIJ's excellent high-quality and high-efficiency modular datacenter (*3) technologies made it possible to construct パラダイスカジノ first Lao PDR government-operated eco datacenter in Vientiane パラダイスカジノ project is in パラダイスカジノ process of パラダイスカジノ facilities' operation adjusted to パラダイスカジノ local environment and パラダイスカジノ evaluation of パラダイスカジノ impact to CO2 emission reduction It is estimated that this datacenter could achieve approximately 40% of energy efficiency compared to conventional datacenters, which would lead to CO2 emission reduction Furthermore, パラダイスカジノ datacenter is also expected to strongly contribute to sustainable socio-economic development in パラダイスカジノ Lao PDR Accordingly, as パラダイスカジノ fundamental social infrastructure for パラダイスカジノ IT strategies in パラダイスカジノ Lao PDR, パラダイスカジノ datacenter is intended to be utilized not only for government use, but also for パラダイスカジノ development of future IT professionals and for パラダイスカジノ further acceleration of private-sector businesses

Toyota Tsusho, IIJ, and Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities keep combating with variety of global warming issues such as パラダイスカジノ CO2 emission reduction

(*1) This project was among those chosen by パラダイスカジノ New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) as part of its Global Warming Mitigation Technology Promotion Project in July 2015 パラダイスカジノ governments of Japan and Lao PDR have signed a bilateral document(*) concerning establishment and implementation of JCM , and this project is one that uses a JCM (validation, project registration, monitoring and reporting of emissions reductions attributed to パラダイスカジノ project, and verification) meant to support パラダイスカジノ efficient and effective implementation of specific, provable greenhouse gas emissions reduction projects that use low-carbon technologies and products from Japan that have not been introduced or have seen little penetration in developing nations

(*2) Joint Crediting Mechanism: Mechanism for facilitating diffusion of low-carbon technologies, products, systems, services, and infrastructure, as well as implementation of mitigation actions in developing countries and appropriate evaluation of Japan's contributions to greenhouse gas emission reductions or removals in a quantitative manner to achieve Japan's emission reduction target

(*3) パラダイスカジノ datacenter integrates IT and cooling systems, with both IT equipment and an indirect outside-air cooling system in easy-to-ship 20-foot containers (ISO compliant) This project uses IIJ's co-IZmo/I modular datacenter
