Message from the President

Shinji Tsuchiya, Member of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer

We have an integral role in the domestic power business of the Mitsubishi Corporation.
In our group, Mitsubishi Corporation Offshore Wind Ltd. promotes offshore wind power generation projects in Japan, and Mitsubishi Corporation Clean Energy Ltd. promotes renewable energy power generation projects, such as PV(Photovoltaic), Onshore wind, and Hydroelectric power, and carbon-free power plant business in Japan. Through these two companies, we are working to assure a stable supply of clean electricity by developing and operating power supply assets with high environmental value.

Amid the global movement toward carbon neutrality, Japan is also making active efforts to realize a carbon-neutral society by 2050.
We take this change in the market environment as an opportunity to broaden collaboration with partners who also aim for carbon neutrality, create new businesses, and contribute to building an environmentally friendly future.

We will practice the Three Corporate Principles of the Mitsubishi Corporation Group—”Shoki Hoko” (Corporate Responsibility to Society), “Shoji Komei” (Integrity and Fairness), and “Ritsugyo Boeki” (Global Understanding Through Business)—in the power business field while making sincere efforts to realize a carbon-neutral society, contribute to the development of Japan and local communities, and meet the expectations of our stakeholders.
We thank all of our stakeholders and business partners for their continued support and cooperation in our business.

Shinji Tsuchiya, Member of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer
