The SMART factory project which involves building a plastic production system from wood biomass (thinned wood) at Maniwa biomass base has been developed. This development aims to construct a business utilization model that increases the production of wood biomass. One of the issues is the economical reduction of CO2 emissions which are produced by the consumption of electric power and fossil fuel while the biomass in the factory is processed. In this study, a smart energy system for industry which combines solar power with electric industrial vehicles is developed through the use of a mathematical model and some practical experiments. The results confirm that this smart system is able to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 40% economically.
