Refinery Articles

 Energy supports our lives.

Refineries, which supply energy, cannot usually be entered by outsiders. However, do you know that there are actually rich natural environments growing within these industrial facilities? More than 150 species of wildlife have been found at the Negishi Refinery in Yokohama City, and rare plants bloom. At the Sendai Refinery, reconstructed after the Great East Japan Earthquake, Japanese raccoon dogs and foxes can be seen roaming through the green areas. Such scenes are the results of biodiversity conservation initiatives being undertaken by the ENEOS Group at refineries across Japan. We take a look at the environmental conservation initiatives being implemented within refineries that can’t usually be seen in our daily life as well as their significance to local ecosystems and our lives.
