Daigas Group President’s Commitment
Co-creating value for a sustainable future and contributing to the realization of a sustainable society
The Daigas Group aims to become carbon neutral by 2050. We plan to reach the goal through decarbonization of our gas and electricity by introducing methanation* to generate gas with renewable energy and hydrogen and by increasing the share of renewables in its power generation portfolio. We also announced our “Carbon Neutral Vision” in January 2021 to show our efforts to achieve it.

- Our transition initiatives and solutions for a lower carbon society in 2023
We will contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through our business activities, such as contributing to realizing a low carbon / carbon neutral society, building stable and highly resilient energy infrastructure, and promoting community development that is both environmentally and economically sound.
