We have asked Osaka Gas Facilities Corporation to analyze and break down (investigate) energy consumption data obtained from BEMS, an energy management and visualization system, to consider measures to further reduce energy consumption.
By continuously reducing energy (electricity/gas) consumption, we aim to achieve an eco-friendly campus with lower environmental burden and work to reduce electricity and gas usage costs.
To further promote efforts to achieve an eco-friendly campus, we established the Environmental Declaration in October 2013, and the Fukakusa Campus obtained KES (Kyoto Environmental Management System Standard) Step 1 certification in March 2014.
Since obtaining the certification, we have implemented environmental management based on the KES Step 1 criteria. In March 2019, we received a second review for confirmation of conformity (for renewal) from NPO KES Environmental Organization, and it was confirmed that our environmental improvement activities conformed to the KES Step 1 criteria.
