TOKYO : Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries said on Thursday it aims to achieve carbon neutrality in its domestic factories and offices in 2030 by using electricity generated by a 100 megawatts hydrogen-fueled power plant it plans to build.
Kawasaki aims to transport 225,000 tonnes of liquefied hydrogen from abroad to Japan in 2030 and use 45,000 tonnes at the planned new hydrogen power plant to provide electricity to its domestic sites. "It's our role to show everyone a pathway to carbon neutrality using hydrogen... we want to demonstrate it is feasible and cost can be reduced," Yasuhiko Hashimoto, president of Kawasaki Heavy, told reporters and analysts.
Kawasaki's goal is to boost its hydrogen-related sales, including carriers, power generation equipment and licensing fees, to 300 billion yen in 2030, and to 2 trillion yen in 2050.
