Nippon Oil Corp. and Seibu Gas Energy Co. began installing 150 ENE FARM power generation units in houses across Maebaru starting in October 2008. These are one- kilowatt class, residential fuel cell co-generation systems developed by Nippon Oil. The systems can cover about 60% of a home’s power consumption and about 80% of its hot water supply.

The commercial availability of these products also means significant technological innovation in other areas as a consequence.
