Based on a partnership agreement with Tosu City, Saga Prefecture, this project aims to realize a decarbonized society and to promote concrete energy-saving and decarbonization measures in the local community. In AY 2025, a demonstration on AI-based air-conditioning optimization was conducted at the home arena of volleyball team Hisamitsu Springs, Salonpas Arena. This demonstration involved data collection and analysis, AI simulations, and test operations using both individual and central air-conditioning systems. The project examined energy-saving outcomes and conditions for implementation, with comfort as a basic prerequisite. On the basis of the demonstration’s results, further advances were made toward implementing and expanding autonomous operations across the private sector.
