Initiatives by the Tokyo Gas Group

Thursday, October 6, 2016 Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd.

The Tokyo Gas Group is now pursuing action in line with three main policies adopted for implementation in FY2015-17 (the "step" phase of the Challenge 2020 Vision). These are (1) evolving into the total energy business,

(2) accelerating global business development, and (3) reconstructing our corporate group.

In addition to city gas business, we are expanding electric power business and liquid gas business focusing on LPG sales to realize "evolving into the total energy business" as an energy company. And we are accelerating efforts to develop value-added services such as engineering service, living service and urban development service.

2016 was a pivotal year for the energy industry. It ushered in the start of full liberalization of the retail electricity market, which brought many new entrants into the sector. Among them was the Tokyo Gas Group, which has made great strides in aggressively securing its position as the No. 1 new entrant. In 2017, we will leverage the knowledge and experience gained in the first year of liberalization to set ourselves still higher goals and holistically explore and develop the conditions required to put our electric power business on a sound growth trajectory.

Another major focus for us is to smoothly transition and launch operations in preparation for full liberalization of the gas retail sector in April 2017 with keeping with the objectives of gas system reform. The Group is committed to getting back to basics and working as one to further improve service and safety levels in order to better meet the needs of our long-standing customers.

Overseas, we will continue to strengthen our operations, especially in Southeast Asia and North America, by developing our human resources, seeking out and doing due diligence on prime projects, and working hand in hand with our partners to ensure that these activities produce solid results.
