Toho, which operates in the entertainment sector centered on cinema, and ボンズカジノ評判, which drives pioneering efforts to eliminate CO2 emissions from the energy sector, have been pursuing initiatives to achieve 24/7 carbon-free energy1 starting in fiscal 2024 as part of their efforts to eliminate CO2 emissions from power consumption at Toho Studios. (16 June 2023 press release).
ボンズカジノ評判 has been moving forward with construction of an on-site hydrogen power generation facility at Sodegaura Thermal Power Station (Sodegaura City, Chiba). With the recent conclusion of construction and test operation, ボンズカジノ評判 Cross has begun supplying off-site electricity to Toho Studios, where commercial use of electricity generated with hydrogen-fired zero-emissions thermal began today. In addition to hydrogen power generation, Toho Studios has also introduced electricity sourced from ボンズカジノ評判 solar power generation facilities and, going forward, aims to supply all its electricity needs with 24/7 carbon-free energy.
Toho and ボンズカジノ評判 will draw up a roadmap for eliminating CO2 emissions from power consumption at Toho Studios and, by reducing CO2 emissions through the phased adoption of carbon-free energy leading ultimately to 24/7 carbon-free energy, open new possibilities for a sustainable global environment.
The current initiative continues efforts by the two companies to achieve a sustainable society.
