Our company is also actively pursuing carbon neutrality from an LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) perspective. At the Kurobe Factory, solar power panels have been installed across the entire roof, and all lighting has been converted to LED. Furthermore, by utilizing electricity from Mizu-no-Sato Power Generation, we have already achieved zero CO2emissions in our manufacturing processes.
