Toyo Construction Co., Ltd. (President and Representative Director: Kyoji Takezawa) has received an order for Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project (Phase IV) from the Department of Public Works and Highway (DPWH) of the Republic of the Philippines, the package 2 of which was awarded independently, and the package 3 of which was awarded as a joint venture (JV) led by the Company. The signing ceremony was held on July 19, 2021.
As we already had received the orders for the Phase II and III of this Project, this is our third consecutive award. The contract amount for the package 2 is approximately JPY 17.2 billion, and our share for the package 3 is approximately JPY 9.7 billion (approximately JPY 19.4 billion for the JV) – approximately 26.9 billion in total. The work will be implemented as a Special Terms for Economic Partnership (STEP) of Bilateral Government Loan (yen loan) of the Official Development Assistance (ODA).
By our previous revetment work and river channel dredging work through the Phase II and III, flood damage of the area around has been drastically reduced, and the revetment area designed for making people familiar with the river has become the place of rest and relaxation for the community residents. Moreover, adjacent to the area, many parks and commercial facilities, high-rise apartments and the like are developed one after another, which indicates that this Project is significantly contributing to the area’s development.
The awarded Phase IV is the development for the upstream part, which will reduce flood-caused damage to the environs by the revetment work including raising riverbank for flood prevention and the river channel dredging for improving flowability, as applied for the downstream. As for rainwater and domestic drainage flowing into the river from the surrounding area, environment improvement is expected by the development of drainage channels and the like performed during the same period. Therefore, it is expected that the works for this area will contribute greatly to the area’s economic progress, same as in the downstream.

 

The Company, since 1973 when it started operations in the Philippines as one of the countries that frequently suffer from natural disasters, has participated in various projects. In the field of large-scale river works, we have made many construction results such as: the urgent remedial work for Agno river area (central Luzon Island), the food prevention work for Ormoc city (Leyte Island), the flood & erosion control work for Laoag river (north of Luzon Island), Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement works: Phase II and III (Metro Manila), and the food prevention work for Cagayan de Oro (north Mindanao Island), etc.
Our business experience in the Philippines for nearly half a century is our irreplaceable asset. We will continue to develop community-based business, transfer our technologies, develop our precious human resources, and contribute to the country’s social & economic development.

The extremely powerful typhoon No. 22 (local name: Odette), which devastated the south-central Philippines from 16th to 18th of December last year, caused considerable damage to the country.

 

The number of dead rose to 405 as of December 31, 530,000 houses were destroyed, and approximately 500,000 people have had to take refuge. Also, in the disaster areas, transportation and telecommunications are disrupted, which has made it difficult to secure food and water.

 

The Company, as part of support for affected areas, especially for disaster victims in Cebu Island and Bohol Island where particularly severely damaged, provided emergency shipping by loading emergency relief goods such as food, water and fuel onto two of our own vessels from the nation’s capital, Manila around the year-end.

 

The Company and CCT, our overseas subsidiary, have participated in various projects in the Philippines for about 50 years, which has strengthened our ties with the country. We would like to express our heartfelt sympathies to all those affected by the disaster, and sincerely look toward the earliest recovery of the affected areas.

Tokyo – 21 January 2022 – Toyo Construction Co., Ltd. (“Toyo Construction”), together with MODEC, Inc. (“MODEC”), Furukawa Electric Industry Co., Ltd. (“Furukawa Electric”), and JERA Co., Inc. (“JERA”), has received, on 21 January, notice of acceptance of their joint grant application, under the Green Innovation Fund program of the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (“NEDO”), to conduct a project to develop cost-reducing technology for tension leg platform (“TLP”) floating offshore wind turbines (the “Project”).

 

To achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the Japanese government has set a goal of increasing offshore wind power generation capacity, including floating offshore wind, to 30–45 GW by 2040. Because Japan has limited shallow-water sites where the bottom-fixed offshore wind turbines now being developed around the world can be installed, there is a strong domestic demand for practical floating offshore wind turbines that can be installed in deep water further from shore.

 

TLP systems are expected to reduce the cost of power generation because the high stability of tension mooring to a seafloor foundation enables installation of large 15 MW-class wind turbines, which have the potential to become mainstream in the future, on compact floating platforms. In addition, TLP mooring lines are expected to be more socially acceptable than other mooring systems because they can reduce the space occupied under the sea by 1/1,000 approximately and have less impact on existing businesses such as the fishing industry and ship operations.

 

The Project aims to establish component technologies for TLP floating and mooring systems and subsea power transmission systems with the aim of commercializing floating wind farms in the early 2030s.

 

The four companies will jointly conduct component technology development under contract from NEDO for two years beginning in April 2022. JERA will conduct surveys and measurement of the planned verification site, design power generation facilities, and establish environmental parameters. In addition to conducting simulations and demonstrations of component technologies previously studied by each company—floating and mooring systems by MODEC, mooring foundations by Toyo Construction, and power transmission systems by Furukawa Electric—a basic plan for a 15 MW-class power generation demonstration facility will be drawn up based on design and environmental parameters provided by JERA. The four companies will also begin considering supply chains for mass production and cost reduction with the aim of realizing commercial projects following the power generation demonstration.

 

Toyo Construction raises the offshore-wind-power related business as a “growth driver” and is promoting the business to make it our future core business. Particularly, we put priority and focus on developing technologies for lowering costs related to the offshore wind power generation business. In this business, we will contribute to the spread of offshore wind power generation in the future in Japan with maximized utilization of our rich track record in the design and construction of offshore structure.

Toyo Construction Co., Ltd. (President and Representative Director: Kyoji Takezawa) are pleased to announce the decision to construct a new vessel for cable laying.

Offshore wind power generation, which is considered an effective means of Japan’s renewable energy business, is expected to begin full-scale implementation in the oceanic region. Various work vessels will be required for construction of offshore wind power generation facilities, and particularly, there will be a very strong demand for self-propelled work vessels that handle the cable laying work, partly because, in addition to the fixed-bottom and floating type, the submarine DC power transmission connecting Honshu and Hokkaido promoted by the government is scheduled. Also, since the introduction of floating offshore wind power generation is expected to progress, it is expected that there will be increasing demand for suitable offshore work vessels.

For these reasons, we have decided to construct the nation’s largest self-propelled cable-laying vessel to meet these demands.

We will construct the vessel taking into account the construction of floating offshore wind power generation facilities, and by utilizing the cable-laying vessel in various fields, we will contribute to the spread of offshore wind power generation.
