PFI and designated administrator projects & eco-solutions

We provide low-cost, high-quality public services that have been made available to local communities.

In a PFI and designated administrator project, multiple companies form a consortium that leverages their respective strengths to develop, operate, and manage public facilities in unison. As a company rooted in Shikoku, we proactively engage in business development in hopes of contributing to regional growth.

PFI projects

PFI stands for private finance initiative, such that a PFI project aims to improve the quality of public services by harnessing the financing muscle, management abilities, and technical capabilities of private-sector companies for everything from the designing of public facilities to their development, operations, and management. We have been involved in numerous PFI projects, including one involving the development of the Utazu New Food Service Center. In addition to the facility development business that constitutes one of our strengths, we also aim to take on the challenge of operating and managing public services to contribute to local communities.

Eco-solutions

The electricity and thermal energy that are indispensable in our daily lives are obtained from precious earth-derived resources. In order to enable the effective use of limited resources and reduce energy costs, we meet the needs of our clients through the installation and construction of electrical equipment, water supply and drainage systems, air-conditioning systems, and various other options. We also collect and analyze data on building equipment, the environment, and energy; make upgrades to facilitate the use of the latest energy-saving equipment; carry out energy-saving control and energy management tasks; reduce energy and maintenance costs; and otherwise support our clients with an integrated system for the provision of detailed equipment diagnosis, equipment repair, and maintenance services.

ESCO projects

ESCO is short for Energy Service Company and constitutes a service by which the costs of renovating equipment and systems related to energy conservation are offset by the reduction in utility costs achieved by the renovation and by which cost reduction benefits that are further achieved are shared with the client. The term of a project is typically around ten years. We are comprehensively involved in renovation work and the operations and management of introduced equipment and systems as an ESCO operator and undertake everything on an integrated basis from the planning stage to the installation, construction, and testing stages to achieve more effective substantial energy savings. In addition, we aim to carry out higher quality ESCO projects by effectively leveraging subsidies for energy-conservation investments and other support programs.

Six other projects

Solar power generation

As a company that specializes in the installation and construction of electrical equipment, we have been involved in numerous jobs for the construction of small to medium-sized solar power-generation facilities since the 1990s. Since the introduction by the national government of the feed-in tariff system for renewable energy in 2012, there has been a rapid increase in the number of mega-solar power plants constructed throughout the country, as a result of which we have been lucky enough to be involved in the design and construction of many such projects. We will continue to proactively harness our technology and know-how to design, install, and construct solar power-generation facilities in order to realize a decarbonized society.
