Abstract

In response to the issue of climate change, Japan announced that it will take on the challenge of achieving carbon neutrality in 2050 and a 46% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in 2030, while continuing efforts for a further 50% reduction target in 2030. In addition, Japan's Sixth Strategic Energy Plan, announced in October 2021, indicated that the path of the energy policy to realize this goal was based on the idea of using all available technologies and the S + 3E (Safety + stable supply, economy, environment) perspective. This report provides an overview of our company's efforts to achieve decarbonization and net-zero carbon, mainly in the field of thermal power generation, and introduces the status of the development and practical application.
