About Us
Carbon Neutrality through Integration of Technologies
Environmental issues are a common concern of mankind. I hope our research will make the impossible possible.
About Us
About Us
The Global Zero Emission Research Center (GZR) was established in January 2020 in line with the Japanese government’s “Environment Innovation Strategy,” which aims to reduce domestic as well as global greenhouse gas emissions. Connecting G20 researchers, GZR provides an important platform that attracts domestic and international insights about cutting-edge research and development.
By gathering insights from Japan and overseas, GZR engages in research and development to achieve carbon neutrality by integrating GHG reduction technologies and their associated systems assessment.
We work with industry and academia. We are eager to promote collaboration both globally and domestically. One of our collaborations is realized through “Research and Development 20 for Clean Energy Technologies (RD20),” which is an international conference attended by leaders of G20 members in clean energy research and technology. We are also active at the Tokyo Zero-emission Innovation Bay, which is a council that aims to develop the Tokyo Bay area into an innovation zone for zero emission technologies. GZR also serves as its secretariat.
