Inpex to help Ome City cut carbon emissions

Inpex, Ome City, and Ome Gas have signed a cooperation agreement on the realisation of a zero carbon city, Inpex said on July 22.

Through this agreement, Ome City, which is aiming for net zero carbon dioxide emissions by 2050, will engage in cooperative discussions with Ome Gas and Inpex to determine specific courses of action.

Ome Gas will utilise its knowledge of global warming countermeasures to help realise Ome City’s zero-carbon ambitions from the planning stage as a city gas company that provides a gas supply to the area, Inpex said.

Inpex said it will provide a stable supply of diverse and clean energy by making its oil and natural gas business cleaner. It will work with city gas business operators and implement measures contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gases on a global scale alongside its customers by responding to their needs through providing solutions such as carbon neutral gas and other forms of clean energy.
