In concluding the cooperation agreement, we held a meeting with Takafumi Uchida, President and Representative Executive Officer of Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd.

- ※Methanation is a technology that generates methane (CH4), which is the main component of city gas, through the reaction of carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H2). In the future, we aim to prevent new CO2 emissions by recycling CO2 to produce city gas.
