About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

Shin-Etsu Chemical participates in Gunma Prefecture's 'Local production for local consumption type PPA (Gunma model)' to procure hydroelectric power for the Yokonodaira Plant at its Gunma Complex. This green electricity covers all power used at the plant, reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 90%. Evidence: "The new electricity procured through this program will cover all of the electricity used at the Yokonodaira Plant at Shin-Etsu Chemical's Gunma Complex, enabling the plant to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 90%." — https://www.shinetsu.co.jp/en/sustainability/esg_environment/initiative_cn/
