BEfJE - Bulit Environment for Japanese Entry
Lead Participant:
DEARMAN ENGINE COMPANY LIMITED
Abstract
This study will evaluate the deployment of Dearman’s novel, zero-emission, liquid nitrogen fuelled engine
technology for built environment applications in Japan. The country is undergoing the most significant
electricity market reform in its history with full liberalisation due to be completed in 2020. Innovation driven by
competition offers a host of opportunities for novel technologies in this £100bn market. Moreover, Japan’s
penetration of renewables in the electricity mix is forecast to reach 28% by 2030; highlighting a role for
technologies, such as the Dearman engine, that aid in storing ‘wrong-time’ electricity generated by renewables.
The main purpose of this study is field-based engagement by Dearman with Japanese stakeholders to create
partnerships to foster knowledge sharing and enhance business relationships. These engagements, along with
research and analysis, will develop a business case for the application. The project has the potential to not only
accelerate entry into the Japan built environment market, but also develop links with Japanese multi-national
manufacturers that will facilitate mass deployment of Dearman stationary engines globally.
