Tokyo Gas has been aggressively developing new models of residential PEFC co-generation system "ENE FARM" since the world's first launch of the previous models in 2005. The new systems are both revolutionary and sophisticated so as to be sold as one of ordinary commodities, whereas the previous models were introduced to the limited customers in the Large-Scale Stationary Fuel Cell Demonstration Project conducted by NEF (New Energy Foundation). As of the end of FY2007, five hundred and twenty of the previous models were installed in the project, whose data and experiences during actual operation were utilized in the development of the new models. Hundreds of the new models were manufactured in FY2008, and they have been already in real operation in the project above. In FY2009, the new models are scheduled to be on sale by more than a thousand systems per year.
