Renovated Chiba Store as ZEB

The Home Center Chiba Store completed its renovation and reopened on April 23, 2018. The store received a support grant from the fiscal 2017 ZEB Demonstration Project, aimed at promoting energy conservation investment by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. Actual energy consumption recorded in the 1st-year verification was found to be 67.5% less than a standard building and 15% down from the ZEB design value, meaning that the store achieved its targets.

Opened ZEB athletic club

The renovation of Joyful Athletic Club Tsuchiura was completed and a grand opening was held on July 15, 2019. The building is the company’s second ZEB building to be constructed with a subsidy from the FY2018 ZEB Demonstration Project. The building is Japan’s first athletic club to obtain ZEBReady status.

Reduced CO2 emissions

By replacing store and head office lighting with energy-saving LED lighting, adjusting to proper illumination levels, and reducing power consumption, Joyful Honda is striving to prevent global warming through a reduction in COâ‚‚ emissions. Replacing lighting and air-conditioning units has helped reduce COâ‚‚ emissions of the entire Group by more than 37 percent over five years.

Installed solar power system

A solar power generation system and storage batteries for in-house consumption were installed on the roof of the Mizuho store. The purpose of the project is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce the load on the power grid, and provide a power source to operate facilities at the store for several hours in the event of a disaster.

Added EV charging facilities

Ordinary battery chargers and rapid battery chargers for electric cars have been installed at all stores except the Chiba store in line with the spread of eco-friendly electric cars. The company reports approximately 26,000 vehicles using the chargers per year across all stores.

Set up recycling stations

The Home Center Utsunomiya Store and Satte Store have set up a recycling station for PET bottles, empty cans, and paper, in an effort to reduce waste and recycle reusable resources. Customers who cooperate with the recovery of these resources receive points that can be exchanged for Joyful Honda gift cards.
