Summary
In anticipation of future developments in alternative fuel availability and technology, Mazda has updated its carbon-neutrality roadmap to enable a more flexible and stable energy procurement strategy that supports its operations while reducing CO2 emissions.
Under the new plan, the company will drive decarbonisation by introducing a gas cogeneration system*2, fuelled by pipeline natural gas derived from LNG*3, which uses proven power generation technology. The system will also allow Mazda to transition in phases to hydrogen – a key fuel for achieving carbon-neutrality – with only minor equipment modifications. Mazda aims to advance decarbonisation in line with the broader adoption of carbon-neutral fuels in society.
Moving forward, Mazda will work together with Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. to develop the system specifications, focusing on achieving high energy efficiency and enabling optimal energy management tailored to factory operations. The company will also promote the transition in partnership with local energy providers Hiroshima Gas Co., Ltd., and Chugoku Electric Power Co., Inc.
