What is the percentage of energy demand in Japan that consists of heat demand?

Heat demand for industrial boilers and furnaces makes up about 70% of Japan's energy demand.

Why is electrifying all heat demand in Japan considered not practical?

Electrifying all heat demand is highly inefficient due to significant energy conversion losses and high costs.

The raw materials used for e-methane production are carbon dioxide reused from the air or industrial emissions.

The same amount of carbon dioxide emitted during combustion is captured during the production process.

The demonstration project for next-generation e-methane is underway in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture.
