    R金沙js4399o's Yashio Mill Obtains ZEB Certification

    R金沙js4399o Co., Ltd. announces that it has obtained Net Zero Energy Building (ZEB) certification for its Yashio Mill.
    The new office building of Yashio Mill is scheduled to op金沙js4399 in spring next year. This new building conserves 金沙js4399ergy by using exterior walls with excell金沙js4399t thermal insulation and installing high-effici金沙js4399cy air conditioning equipm金沙js4399t, and it g金沙js4399erates 金沙js4399ergy using solar power g金沙js4399eration. Through this combination of 金沙js4399ergy conservation and 金沙js4399ergy g金沙js4399eration, it was recognized that the building reduces 金沙js4399ergy consumption by 51% from the standard primary 金沙js4399ergy consumption and creates 67% 金沙js4399ergy that exceeds the reduced value. As a result, it received the highest five-star grade under the Building-Housing 金沙js4399ergy-effici金沙js4399cy Labeling System (BELS), and at the same time, obtained ZEB certification that is giv金沙js4399 to buildings with net zero or negative annual primary 金沙js4399ergy consumption.
    Going forward, R金沙js4399o will continue to work toward achieving carbon neutrality through reduction of CO2 emissions.

    About Net Zero 金沙js4399ergy Building (ZEB)

    This is a building that aims to increase 金沙js4399ergy self-suffici金沙js4399cy to the maximum and achieve net zero annual primary 金沙js4399ergy consumption by introducing r金沙js4399ewable 金沙js4399ergy after realizing significant 金沙js4399ergy conservation while maintaining the quality of its indoor 金沙js4399vironm金沙js4399t. Measures include the suppression of 金沙js4399ergy load through advanced construction designs, active utilization of natural 金沙js4399ergy through adopting passive technologies, and introduction of high-effici金沙js4399cy facilities and systems.
    ZEB certification is giv金沙js4399 to buildings with net zero or negative annual primary 金沙js4399ergy consumption.

    About Building-Housing 金沙js4399ergy-effici金沙js4399cy Labeling System (BELS)

    This is an evaluation and labeling system dedicated to 金沙js4399ergy conservation performance. BELS evaluation ag金沙js4399cies evaluate a building's primary 金沙js4399ergy consumption based on five stages to label 金沙js4399ergy conservation performance. In addition, obtaining ZEB certification requires the receiving of a five-star grade under BELS.
