Background of business introduction

Honcho was selected by the national government as an "Eco-Model City" in March 2014 (23 municipalities / 3 in Hokkaido).
Honcho's CO2 emissions (estimated value) is 59,000 tons (FY 2011), and an action plan is being implemented with the goal of reducing CO2 by 86% compared to 1990 (46,000 tons) by FY 2050.
Until now, we have mainly made public use of LEDs, utilization of geothermal heat pumps, energy saving efforts, etc. However, Honmachi is characterized by its CO2 emissions from the tourism sector as a feature. For this reason, in FY2005 we implemented the Green Plan Partnership Project of the Ministry of the Environment and conducted the energy saving potential survey of 11 tourist facilities in the neighborhood.
As a result, Yushintei decided to conduct heat exchange using waste water, and this fiscal year we were selected as one village and one energy. This initiative is small-scale, with only one facility, but the town positions it as a forerunner of energy conservation and renewable energy utilization of tourist facilities, and we would like to horizontally deploy CO2 reduction initiatives to tourism facilities in the town and create environmentally friendly sightseeing spots..
