Japan: Sumitomo Osaka Cement has started using electricity generated from biomass to power its head office in the Shiodome Sumitomo Building in Tokyo. The electricity is generated at the company’s company's Tochigi biomass power plant in Sano and then fed into the general grid. The cement producer and the country are using a feed-in-tariff (FIT) non-fossil energy certificate system to track the use of electricity generated from non-fossil fuel generated sources.
