Noto Peninsula Earthquake: Active Support for Disaster Areas! LP Gas & Gasoline Dual-Fuel Generator!

We received the "Grand Prize" in recognition of our support activities during the Noto Peninsula earthquake, the development of the LP gas and gasoline compatible generator "ELSONA," the "Community Power Station," and our efforts aimed at reducing CO₂ through "1.5 for the future." 【Award Name】Japan Resilience Award (Resilience Grand Prize) 2025 "Grand Prize" 【Target Activities】 - Support activities for the Noto Peninsula earthquake disaster area - Development and dissemination of the LP gas and gasoline generator "ELSONA" - Establishment of disaster reduction and mutual assistance models such as the "Community Power Station" - Efforts aimed at reducing CO₂ through "1.5 for the future" With this award as a catalyst, G&ECO will continue to address social and regional challenges through energy solutions, including the portable generator series "ELSONA," solar power generation equipment, and battery storage systems.

The "Sorabear Sonaeru Project," organized by the NPO Sorabear Foundation, aims to enhance the adaptability of preschool children in emergency situations and raise awareness about "environment" and "disaster prevention" by donating "portable power supplies" and "solar panels," as well as conducting educational programs called "Sorabear Workshops" for the children. G&ECO is sponsoring the "Sorabear Sonaeru Project" as part of its renewable energy promotion activities. They provided "portable power supplies" and "solar panels," and workshops on "environment" and "disaster prevention" for children were held at "Hinokai Nursery" in Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture, and "Little Mone Nursery" in Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture. Details of the workshops are also featured in the article "G&ECO Disaster Prevention." Please take a look. https://g-and-eco.jp/projects/4739

14 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake. And last year's Noto Peninsula earthquake. Having experienced the disaster, we have keenly realized the importance of "having electricity." The anxiety of being in a blackout without light. The frustration of being unable to communicate. The impatience of not being able to operate necessary equipment. ELSONA is a generator born to secure power even during disasters. By operating on both gasoline and LP gas, it provides more options. During the Noto Peninsula earthquake, it assisted in: - Lighting in evacuation shelters and charging smartphones - Operating electric beds and refrigerators in care facilities - Charging portable power sources, among others It contributed to power supply on-site. What we felt in the disaster-stricken area was the reality that "gasoline is hard to obtain." However, there were many situations where LP gas could utilize home cylinders or regional stockpiles. Disasters can happen anytime, anywhere. That is why we hope this serves as an opportunity to reconsider "preparations for emergencies." ELSONA will continue to improve as a power source that supports everyone's peace of mind. With the lessons of that day in mind, let’s do what we can for the future. G&ECO Co., Ltd.

At G&ECO Co., Ltd., we donated 270,600 yen, which is 30% of the support purchase amount for the return of "Support the Disaster Area by Purchasing the Dual-Purpose Generator ELSONA while Supporting the Noto Peninsula Earthquake Disaster Area" sold on the support purchase site Makuake, to Ishikawa Prefecture as "Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake Disaster Relief Fund." _____________________________________ Ishikawa Prefecture Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake Disaster Relief Fund 270,600 yen ______________________________________ We hope that the warm support from our supporters will lead to the swift recovery of the disaster-affected areas. In the region centered around the Noto Peninsula, there has been serious damage not only from the earthquake but also from heavy rain. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to all those affected.
