Outline of Research

The energy self-sufficiency ratio in Japan is low at around 10%, and its reliance on fossil fuels drives up the cost of electricity and increases CO2 emissions. Expanding the use of renewable energy is key to solving this problem. This project aims to achieve disruptive technologies that convert energy generated from renewable energy sources into hydrogen energy, store it, and utilize it to build a clean, high-capacity, and stable energy system.
