I think I learned a lot about "ZEH".
For example, I deepened my knowledge by interviewing companies that had applied the previous year and attending seminars. I also researched in advance about applying for "ZEH" subsidies, such as how to submit application documents to the government.
In addition, there were many restrictions on selling the condominiums because it was a subsidized project. We made sure the sales team understood this and explained the project to each customer, what "ZEH" is, and what it means to receive subsidies. We also explained it to the members of the business department so that they would understand, and had them reflect it in the important matters explanation document. I think everyone involved studied "ZEH" and was on the same page with the intention of making the project a success. I think this is the result of a lot of teamwork and unity.

There are too many...lol.
First of all, we had no know-how about ZEH itself, so we had to research and study from scratch. Also, a subsidy system was launched in 2018 as a national policy, but it seems that the government also had a lot to understand about ZEH, and we were asked to submit a huge amount of documents. We repeatedly recalculated the numbers, prepared the required documents, submitted them by the deadline, and corrected any points that were pointed out. The documents to be submitted exceeded 200 pages, and we were reminded of the seriousness of the situation. Then, in 2020, the spread of the new coronavirus put the brakes on our business. The impact was great as it is a business that involves the government, many contractors, consultants, construction companies, and sales teams.

Once the budget for a government subsidy program is exhausted, you will no longer be eligible to apply. After consulting with our consulting team, we decided to submit our application as soon as applications open to make an impact. We also focused on the fact that no other applications had been submitted, as no all-electric homes had been selected in the past. In particular, we presented our smart meter measurement method to the government to gain their understanding, as this was the first time we had used it. As a result, we contributed to increasing the options for ZEH-certified solutions in the ZEH industry.
After a lot of drama, we were successful and were approved for the subsidy, but the key was to solidify the product plan in order to submit documents that would allow the advantages of the property plan to be understood. We worked with a consulting team, but even a professional consulting team couldn't tell if the application would be approved. We were nervous until the results were known. Therefore, the team was especially happy when the application was approved.

I believe my mission is to "provide customers with a comfortable lifestyle." Therefore, I would like to attend previews of apartments, listen to customers' real opinions, and reflect them in the product as much as possible. There are many customers who want to live an eco-friendly life, but an eco-friendly lifestyle that requires patience while living a normal life is not sustainable. The ZEH apartment "LEBEN NAGANO NAKAGOSHO THE PEERLESS" project was realized from the desire to "achieve a lifestyle that does not produce carbon dioxide through facilities and solutions." "You can live an eco-friendly life while also living a comfortable life." I think it has become a wonderful apartment for customers.

Humans inevitably use energy and produce CO2 in order to live. However, by improving the insulation performance of our homes and using energy-efficient equipment to conserve energy, we can achieve a lifestyle that is considerate of the burden on the environment.
Our work can provide ways for people to relate to the environment through housing. We believe that our ideas for housing can help people live comfortable lives and coexist with the earth.
