Initiatives at ground facilities

The JAL Group has established a target of reducing average annual per-unit energy consumption by at least 1% for ground facilities. For ten years in a row since 2015, we received an S Class good business operator classification in the Business Operator Classification Evaluation System under the Act on the Rational Use of Energy (Energy Conservation Act), which is administered by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

In compliance with the Act on the Rational Use of Energy, energy consumption is entered into the system on a monthly basis at each business site and managed centrally at the headquarters. When there is a significant increase or decrease in usage, the amount of corporate activities and energy efficiency are investigated and, if necessary, confirmed through internal environmental audits.

The JAL Maintenance Center, located adjacent to Haneda airport, is a facility with various functions such as maintenance facility that supports safe operation 24 hours a day, including maintenance and inspection of aircraft, exhibition of the “JAL factory tour ~SKY MUSEUM~" and office functions.
In order to improve operation efficiency and to save energy, we are updating lights of the hangar ceiling, dock (workplace), exhibition area of the SKY MUSEUM and office areas to LED fixtures.
Due to a large effect of energy saving, we are reducing approximately 1,000 tons of CO₂ every year.
