Description of measure

The Tokyo Zero-emission Innovation Bay was established, based on the proposal of the “Environment Innovation Strategy” of the Japanese Government (Decision of the Integrated Innovation Strategy Promotion Council, January 21, 2020), to initiate an Innovation Area that pioneers zero-emission related technologies. The Tokyo Zero-emissions Innovation Bay is a cluster/innovation hub of research laboratories, factories, business offices, research institutes, and universities focusing on various energies such as electric power, gas, petroleum, chemicals, electric machinery, and automobile industries which has developed in the Tokyo Bay area. These institutions collaborate in R&D, demonstration projects, and business, aiming to create the world's largest R&D centre for zero-emission technology (e.g. hydrogen, CCUS, energy management, etc.) and to become a starting point for the promotion and distribution of this technology in society.
