7 Advantages and Problems of Toyota City Advantages 1. Achievement as a City of Manufacturing Rank Municipalities Value of Manufactured Goods Shipments (yen) Toyota Yokohama Kurashiki Kawasaki Ichihara trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion Problems 1. Strengthening Industrial Infrastructure No. of companies No. of employees Value of manufactured goods shipments 2. Rich Renewable Energy Resources 2. 2 Reducing クルマのまちゆえの CO2 in a City of CO2 Automobile 抑制 Share of Renewable Energy in Toyota City (FY2011) Renewable (21%) 32% Transport 83% 95% Wastes Non-renewable (79%) Amount of electric power generation by renewable energy 856 million kwh/y Total amount of electric power generation billion kwh/y Services Households 5,839 kilotons (2004) Industry Problem Solving by Advanced Technology and Renewable Energy

8 Basic concept of the verification is Citizen's Viewpoint" Citizen's viewpoint Social Infrastructure's viewpoint Purpose of verification Eco-friendly lifestyles with high QOL(quality of life) and no laborious effort CO 2 reduction/power/configuration/efficie ncy of social capital development etc. What we want to achieve Management of citizen's behavior "the control of the human" Provision/control of infrastructure Construction of infrastructure development Equipment installation / control Approach on this verification Optimization of community's energy/traffic Forecast of supply demand Voluntary behavioral changes of consumers most important issues Building a low-carbon society without additional investment of power and transportation infrastructure simulation Clarification the impact on infrastructure through the left verification

10 Changes of Society (Hardware aspect) CO2 emissions Reducing Steadily (kt-co2) Wastes Transport Services Households Industry (year) Verification Started QE

11 Changes in Living Residents getting accustomed to eco-friendly lives Opinions of Residents I enjoy seeing the energy effects through saving by using HEMS (Home Energy Management System). I like HEMS because it can optimize our energy usage so that we can be engaged in eco-activities without difficulty. I try to clean and wash when the EDMS display is blue. Difficult operation is not necessary at all. I commute by PHV to work every day and there is still gas left without filling it up with gas for three month

12 Towards a Sustainable Society Following the Verification Toyota City Vigor Project Aiming for a society of circulation of local human resources, goods and energy
