[Speaker] Kazunari Ogata, Senior Researcher, Public Policy Research Department, SOMPO Institute Plus Inc. [Key Lecture Content] Addressing climate change requires not only decarbonization on the supply side through renewable energy, hydrogen, and nuclear power, but also essential efforts in energy conservation, electrification, fuel switching, and behavioral change in corporate activities. This lecture will explain the impact of fossil fuel dependency risks on corporate management, crisis responses from various governments, and the demand-side GX required from companies, along with key points for effective communication to establish these concepts both internally and externally. [Lecture Items] 1. Why consider climate change response from the demand side now? 2. Fossil fuel dependency risks and their impact on corporate management. 3. Energy crisis responses and demand-side measures observed in various governments. 4. Demand-side GX required from companies. 5. Methods to establish demand-side GX internally and externally. 6. Q&A / Business card exchange.

This seminar systematically explains the fundamentals of optical sensors and the latest application examples against the backdrop of the rapidly growing optical semiconductor sensor market. It provides clear explanations of the photoelectric effect, the basics of semiconductors, the characteristics of key devices such as PD, image sensors, SiPM, and SPAD, as well as design and selection points regarding wavelength, sensitivity, response speed, and noise. Furthermore, it introduces the latest implementation cases for applications such as LiDAR for autonomous driving, medical and healthcare devices, industrial equipment, and IoT/smart homes, allowing participants to learn about application strategies and market trends for commercialization. It targets a wide range of individuals, from product planning and business development to marketing, research and development, and design engineers, providing knowledge that can be applied to product development and business strategies starting tomorrow.

This text systematically explains the latest trends in recycling technology and biomass plastics, focusing on the resource circulation of waste plastics and textile waste. It covers the characteristics and challenges of material, chemical, and thermal recycling, as well as domestic and international regulations and market trends, and introduces cutting-edge approaches to difficult-to-recycle materials such as composite materials and blended fibers. In particular, it provides detailed explanations of advanced separation technologies for blended fibers and composite materials using microwave selective heating, as well as the development of technologies aimed at realizing a circular society utilizing biomass resources and contributions to carbon neutrality. This content is ideal for engineers, researchers, product development and business planning personnel, and sustainability promotion personnel in the plastics, textiles, chemicals, and recycling industries who wish to learn about the latest trends in resource circulation technology.

This seminar will explain the latest technology of "heat absorption power generation," which converts low-temperature heat that has been difficult to utilize, such as factory waste heat and environmental heat, into a new energy resource. It will focus on semiconductor sensitized thermal utilization power generation (STC), which has a different power generation principle from conventional Seebeck-type thermoelectric conversion, covering its principles, material design, power generation and cooling mechanisms, latest research results, and the status of demonstration tests. Additionally, the seminar will discuss the importance of utilizing unused heat towards achieving carbon neutrality, the resourceization of waste heat from factories and data centers, and the potential applications in the energy industry. This content is ideal for decarbonization-related engineers, researchers, engineers in the energy and manufacturing industries, and new business planners who want to systematically learn about next-generation energy technologies.
