Active use of renewable energy
With the aim of protecting the environment, the Heiwa Group is actively introducing solar power generation and wind power generation equipment in idle plots of land at factories and golf courses.
The total estimated annual power generation of these power generation facilities is 3.76 million kWh, equivalent to the annual power consumption of about 1,040 ordinary households.
By using renewable energy sources, the Heiwa Group is reducing emissions of CO₂, a primary cause of global warming. The annual CO₂ reduction equates to about 1,517 tons, establishing a mechanism capable of contributing to the environment for a long time.
