In a statement, J-POWER said they entered a scheme of arrangement procedure under Australia’s Corporation Act to proceed with the acquisition of the shares.

“J-POWER has built a deep relationship of trust with Genex since 2020 through the joint development of renewable energy projects,” J-POWER said. 

“By accelerating the development of renewable energy and energy storage facilities together with Genex through the share acquisition, J-POWER is confident of significantly contributing to achieving the Australian government’s greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and goals of J-POWER’s BLUE MISSION 2050,” it added. 

Australia aims to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 43% by 2030 from 2005 levels and achieve net zero by 2050.
