Outline of Yokohama Wind Power Generation Project

 Yokohama City is promoting the use of renewable energy and combat global warming, with the aim of encouraging each and every citizen to take concrete action. This business is characterized by two major features. The first is citizen participation by issuing the Hama bond “Kazagu Windmill”, a publicly offered bond for residents. The second is the sponsorship of businesses that support the wind power generation business. Through these two approaches, we will promote our business in collaboration with citizens and businesses, and aim to make this windmill becoming a symbol of Yokohama for a long time.

All publicly offered bonds were redeemed in FY2016.
