We are aiming for carbon neutrality at our factories by 2035 and are working toward comprehensively reducing factory CO2 emissions. Since 2017, we have been using green energy generated from solar power to produce hydrogen—clean energy that emits no CO2 when used. With this, we are operating a zero-CO2-emission process from production to use.
At the 2021 Super Taikyu Series (circuits: Oita’s Autopolis and Okayama International Circuit), we supplied hydrogen produced using solar power at our factories to a hydrogen-powered car participating in the Series. We realized the hydrogen “production, transportation, and use” process together with local partners, and with this, we moved one step closer to achieving carbon neutrality in motorsports.
We will collaborate with our external partners and attempt to develop new ways to utilize hydrogen.
