The Facility is located in front of Tainan Station, a bullet-train station, and Shalun Station, a local station. It is also close to a freeway interchange, so the location is highly accessible.

4. Initiatives for a sustainable society
In Phase 2, solar panels (approximately 1,000) will be installed to generate energy from the building rooftop and flat parking area. Abundant sunlight is a characteristic of southern Taiwan, and it will be utilized effectively to contribute to reducing environmental impact. The clean energy that is generated is expected to cover around 40% of the electricity needed by the Facility.
In addition, LED lighting and sanitary equipment for reusing rainwater will be actively adopted, which is expected to help the Phase 2 expansion achieve the Silver rating in Green Building certification (Taiwan's environmental impact assessment certification system, GRESB assessment target), following achievement of the certification in Phase 1.

■Sustainability in the Mitsui Fudosan Group
Based on the meaning of its “& mark,” “to generate new value with society through cooperation, coexistence and co-creation, we forge ahead, innovating,” the Mitsui Fudosan Group views the “creation of social value” and the “creation of economic value” as two wheels of a cart. Accordingly, we believe that the creation of social value leads to the creation of economic value, and that this economic value then creates even greater social value.
Moreover, we identified six Group Materiality priority issues when formulating our new management philosophy in April 2024. These Group Materiality priority issues are (1) Contribute to industrial competitiveness, (2) Coexist with the environment, (3) Health and Vitality, (4) Safety and security, (5) Diversity and inclusion, and (6) Compliance and governance. The Mitsui Fudosan Group will work to address each of the materialities through its core business activities and contribute to the promotion of sustainability.
