Rising prices for crude oil and natural gas along with mounting geopolitical risks have brought about major changes within the Energy Business Group's operating environment. However, the group as an enterprise aspires to make a valuable contribution to society through the provision of stable supplies of energy. These business activities rely on an extensive network developed over many years with users in Japan and overseas, oil- and natural gas-producing nations and major oil companies.
Aiming to be a "unique and sustainable energy business as the energy arm of a general trading company", the group engages in daily business activities with an eye on coexisting with the energy society of tomorrow by focusing on securing energy resources and ensuring stable energy supplies while also taking the global environment into consideration in order to further increase corporate value.

The Energy Business Group has several key strategies: maintain and expand existing projects, particularly natural gas projects, and bring online new projects or ones under development; develop and strengthen E&P business; create new business models for tapping into globalization and growth markets; and strengthen MC's strategies and functions in support of these activities. While focusing on Japan, we intend to develop our businesses globally to capture demand in other Asian countries and emerging economies.
