As investment in automation utilizing IT technology accelerates toward the realization of a decarbonized society, the domestic market size of the digital field related to decarbonization is estimated to exceed 16 trillion yen in 2030. It was compiled by an industry group made up of electrical equipment manufacturers.

To realize a carbon-free society, it is expected that the technologies possessed by Japanese manufacturers, such as technologies for reducing power consumption, will be utilized.



Under these circumstances, JEITA = Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, which is a member of electric appliance manufacturers, said on the 17th that the domestic market size of the digital field related to decarbonization will expand to 16.3 trillion yen by 2030, which is almost four times as much as last year. Announced the estimated calculation.



Of these, in


the field of "information and communication," the market size has expanded to 8.6 trillion yen, which is more than triple last year, due to increasing needs for automation and remote control utilizing IT technology at production and distribution sites. It is supposed to be.



In addition,


▽ the field related to the spread of electric vehicles and self-driving cars will be 4.3 trillion yen, and


▽ the field of "energy management" that efficiently utilizes electricity in buildings and factories will be 1.9 trillion yen. It is expected to expand, and both are nearly four times as large as last year.



Satoshi Tsunakawa, Chairman of the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, said, "Digitalization of the industrial field is also indispensable with carbon neutrality as an opportunity. We see this as an opportunity to grow a new industry."
