In Japan, we have over 1,200 field engineers who are familiar with our customers’ factories and perform equipment maintenance as well as propose the optimal thermal solutions for our customers.
Efforts by countries and companies are accelerating with the aim of achieving carbon neutrality. Factories account for a large proportion of electricity consumption and CO2 emissions, and there is a need to introduce systems that conserve energy and utilize renewable energy. This partnership will focus on Daikin’s rich lineup of energy-saving and environmentally friendly air-conditioning and cooling-related products, while also building on the engineering capabilities that Daikin Applied has cultivated. By combining field service capabilities such as proposals, equipment operation, and support, we will help resolve issues such as energy conservation and reduction of CO2 emissions throughout the factory. We will accelerate the challenge of achieving zero heat emissions in a wide range of areas, with the aim of making it possible to use various types of heat at industrial heat utilization sites where no two facilities are the same.
In the future, we will expand the factory solution menu established in Japan to all parts of the world and contribute to decarbonization at production sites around the world.
