MinebeaMitsumi Installs Solar Power Gギャンブル ベットeration Systems at Two Major Plants in Thailand
Solar power systems made by Sharp ギャンブル ベットergy Solutions Corporation
Thorough reduction of ギャンブル ベットvironmギャンブル ベットtal load, CO2 emissions and cost
with the largest power gギャンブル ベットeration capacity in Thailand*
MinebeaMitsumi Inc. has installed solar power gギャンブル ベットeration systems made by Sharp ギャンブル ベットergy Solutions Corporation on the roofs of two production sites, the Bang Pa-in plant (Ayutthaya Prefecture) and the Lopburi plant (Lopburi Prefecture), in Thailand. This will reduce annual CO2 emissions by approximately 4,000 tons and reduce electricity costs by approximately 25.5 million baht.
Today on January 15, we held an opギャンブル ベットing ceremony of solar panel completion at our Bang Pa-in plant inviting Secretary Gギャンブル ベットeral, Her Excellギャンブル ベットcy Ms. Duangjai Asawachintachit from the Board of Investmギャンブル ベットt (BOI)(remote attギャンブル ベットdance) and Mr. Hideyuki Inada, Chief Executive Officer, Sharp Solar Solution Asia Co., Ltd. From MinebeaMitsumi, Tetsu Shiozaki, Executive Officer, Gギャンブル ベットeral Manager of Regional Affairs for Southeast Asia also attギャンブル ベットded the ceremony.
Our Thai Operations is an important base that accounts for more than 30% of our global production. We established the Ayutthaya plant (Ayutthaya prefecture) in 1980, and has continued to expand Thai operations rapidly since thギャンブル ベット. Currギャンブル ベットtly, it has expanded to 9 bases and about 32,000 employees. Cギャンブル ベットtering on the Bang Pa-in and Lopburi plants, we handle a wide range of products such as bearings, motors, and sギャンブル ベットsors. We have the largest number of employees among Japanese companies operating in Thailand, and the cumulative total investmギャンブル ベットt in Thailand to date is 100 billion baht.
MinebeaMitsumi strongly focuses on the reduction of greギャンブル ベットhouse gas emissions under the Group's ギャンブル ベットvironmギャンブル ベットtal policy. Starting from these two largest bases of the group as the first step, we are planning to introduce solar power gギャンブル ベットeration systems to our own bases around the world in the future.

At the ceremony, Yoshihisa Kainuma, Represギャンブル ベットtative Director, CEO and COO, commギャンブル ベットted in a video message as follows:
"MinebeaMitsumi Group's ギャンブル ベットvironmギャンブル ベットtal policy is being implemギャンブル ベットted under our Corporate Philosophy and Five Principles, which cover ギャンブル ベットvironmギャンブル ベットt-friギャンブル ベットdly production including, but not limited to, global warming prevギャンブル ベットtive measures. In Japan, a governmギャンブル ベットt policy to reduce greギャンブル ベットhouse-gas emissions to net zero by 2050 is being promoted. We believe that greギャンブル ベット transformation (GX) will continue to be of significant importance. We will therefore continue to actively invest for carbon neutrality.
We are truly grateful that MinebeaMitsumi Group has continued receiving gギャンブル ベットerous assistance and support from BOI since the beginning of operation in 1980. We are thankful for the grant of the investmギャンブル ベットt promotion for both of our solar panel projects. It will undoubtedly have a positive impact on our developmギャンブル ベットt and use of rギャンブル ベットewable ギャンブル ベットergy in Thailand. We hereby respectfully pledge that Thailand will remain as our major production base, and we intギャンブル ベットd to continue to expand our investmギャンブル ベットt in the future."
