In October 2020, Nippon Gases Iberia, European operating companies of Nippon Sanso Holdings (NSH), switched to 100% renewable energy-derived electricity using the Green Power Certificate for the first time in the industrial gas industry for the electricity required in the manufacturing process of medical gases, industrial gases, and food gases in accordance with the European Environmental Improvement Plan.

This measure will contribute to a reduction of 160,000 t-CO2e emissions annually. It’s equivalent to approximately 20% of the total volume of Nippon Gases Euro-Holding, a European operating company of NSH Group.

NHS said “We will continue to study the utilization of renewable energy that will contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gases in Japan and other countries in the future.”
