Fujitsu Limited press release (2024.11.12) (Please note that this announcement is a joint announcement with JA Mitsui Lease Co., Ltd., so there may be some duplication of
information.) Fujitsu Limited Visualize and analyze issues such as CO2 reduction and support smooth introduction of EVs Start of joint demonstration experiment to convert commercial vehicles to electric vehicles JA Mitsui Lease Co., Ltd. (Representative Director, President and Executive Officer: Takahito Niibun, hereinafter referred to as “JA Mitsui Lease”) and Fujitsu Limited (Representative Director and President: Takahito Tokita, hereinafter referred to as “Fujitsu”) are working to promote the conversion and popularization of commercial vehicles to EVs. We would like to inform you that from October 15, 2024, we have started a joint demonstration experiment using vehicles used by agricultural cooperatives (hereinafter referred to as “JA”) across the country. [1. Contents of demonstration experiment】 “EV-Shift” is a service provided by Fujitsu that supports the introduction and operation of EVs by acquiring data such as location information and driving history using telematics devices such as drive recorders installed in gasoline vehicles used by JA. By utilizing the functions scheduled to be implemented in Note 1) and social digital twins (Note 2), we will simulate charging timing and business operations using EVs based on operational results. Through this demonstration experiment, the two companies will resolve concerns about operation and management issues faced by companies considering introducing EVs, such as vehicle prices and charging infrastructure development. This will promote the smooth introduction of EVs, reduce CO2 emissions, and contribute to the realization of a sustainable mobility society. Furthermore, with this collaboration, both companies will work together with local governments and transportation business customers to create a model region for a decarbonized society. ・Comparative verification of economic efficiency such as vehicle leasing costs, fuel and electricity costs between gasoline cars and EVs ・Comparative verification of CO2 emissions between gasoline cars and EVs based on CO2 emissions per liter of gasoline and CO2 emissions per 1kWh (kilowatt hour) of electricity – Verification of operability through simulations that take into account the number of vehicles, charging infrastructure such as basic charging (Note 3) and route charging (Note 4), and the number of chargers. [2. Role of each company] JA Mitsui Lease: Management and coordination of this demonstration experiment, selection of transaction JA, development of new solutions Fujitsu: Provision of EV simulation function and data analysis [3. Implementation period】 From October 15, 2024 to the end of March 2025 (planned) [4. About the future】 Through this demonstration experiment, JA Mitsui Lease will support the promotion of EVs in the region, centered on the JA Group, and contribute to the realization of carbon neutrality. Fujitsu aims to create a sustainable world with “Fujitsu Uvance” (

In the future, as a future expansion of “EV-Shift”, we will collaborate with Fujitsu’s AI service “Fujitsu Kozuchi” and provide optimal charging schedule formulation and battery management based on data analysis. We will solve EV operation issues and accelerate the realization of carbon neutrality.

[Note] Note 1 “EV-Shift”: “Fujitsu Uvance” is an offering that reduces GHG emissions and contributes to resilient urban development by
efficiently introducing and operating EVs and increasing the distribution value of batteries. Note 2 Social Digital Twin: By digitally reproducing not only the state of people and things but also entire economic and social activities based on real-world data, we can grasp the actual state of society and the mechanisms that cause problems, as well as the increasingly diverse and complex nature of society. A group of technologies that support the planning of measures to solve problems. Note 3 Basic charging: Charging in places where EVs routinely stay for long periods of time, such as business parking lots. Note 4 Route charging: Charging at charging spots along the route when there is not enough electricity to travel to the destination.
