Asia Zero Emission Community (AZEC) concept aims for energy transitions tailored to each country's circumstances, together with Asian countries that are actively trying toward carbon neutrality while having similar challenges to Japan in decarbonization.

AZEC is a platform consisting of Asian countries that are promoting decarbonization. By making maximum use of Japan's resources and experience, by providing "support" of finance, technology and human resources and by policy coordination with partner countries.

Support from Japan

  • Assistance in energy roadmap

  • Development, demonstration, and deployment of Decarbonization Technologies

  • Human Resource Training

Policy Coordination

  • Maximum introduction of renewable energy and energy saving

  • Share the direction of utilization of bioenergy, hydrogen, ammonia, etc. in the field of thermal power generation
