「By combining both companies’ technologies through the Business Integration, including biogas derived from sewage sludge, hydrogen production and the utilization of recovered carbon dioxide, we aim to create new integrated solutions that simultaneously deliver clean energy, carbon neutrality and the advancement of resource recycling.」
The previous initiative involving the demonstration and commercialization of hydrogen derived from sewage biogas has expanded into the creation of integrated solutions combining the technologies of both companies, including 月島ホールディングス’ sewage sludge treatment technologies. The original thread derived from the annual securities report remains unchanged. - FY2022RestatedAnnual report
「Local governments in Japan have renewed their focus on digestion facilities as part of efforts to reduce CO2 emissions, and going forward the Company will use the results of this study to promote further adoption and expand sales of the system to local governments.」
The Company continues its policy of promoting adoption and expanding sales of digestion facilities in connection with efforts to reduce CO2 emissions. - FY2020AdvancedAnnual report
「The Company's demonstration research project, titled "Demonstration Research on the Practical Application of Local Energy Production and Consumption Technology Using a High-Efficiency Digestion System," was selected in FY2017 for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's Breakthrough by Dynamic Approach in Sewage High Technology (B-DASH) Project. A full-scale demonstration facility was constructed with a digester capacity of 500m3, and following a year of demonstration research in FY2018, it received a performance evaluation from the evaluation committee in March 2019. Guidelines were published by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and the National Institute for Land and Infrastructure Management in March 2020.」

「The results of this demonstration project were compiled into guidelines covering technical matters including an overview and evaluation of the technology, implementation studies, and design and maintenance, for reference by local governments and other sewerage operators considering adoption of the technology. In October 2016, the National Institute for Land and Infrastructure Management published them as the draft Guidelines for Introducing Hydrogen Energy-Creation Technology Using Sewage Biogas as a Feedstock.」
The project progressed from demonstration operations and studies on commercialization and deployment to publication of draft implementation guidelines, receipt of awards and promotion among local governments and others. - FY2016First statedAnnual report
「We continued to receive the contract in FY2015 and conducted demonstration operations for one year, confirming operational stability and hydrogen quality. We are currently preparing guidelines. In May 2016, we also received a contract from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism to examine a deployment strategy, including efficient operations and lower running costs.」
The demonstration facility was completed in February 2015, and the project progressed to confirming stability and hydrogen quality, preparing guidelines and examining a deployment strategy.
