Specific Themes for Studies on Energy Conservation and CO 2 Emissions Reduction

Distribution

Fuel cell trucks, in which the refrigeration/freezer unit, and the truck itself, are powered by fuel cells, will be introduced as refrigerator/freezer trucks for stores with the goal of reducing CO2 emissions.

Store Operation

An energy management system, combining already-installed solar power generators and the items listed below, will be introduced to enable greater energy conservation and CO2 emissions reduction.

Introduction of stationary hydrogen generator utilizing an automotive fuel cell unit

Under consideration is the utilization of a fuel cell power generator as a power source at stores with hydrogen stations.

Introduction of stationary rechargeable batteries utilizing rechargeable batteries for automobiles

A stationary rechargeable battery system which uses rechargeable automobile batteries will be introduced to stores and may be used as an emergency power source during disasters, in addition to possible applications for energy conservation and CO2 emissions reduction.
