The results of NEDO-supported research and development will be on full display at World Expo 2025 in Osaka, Japan from April 13 to October 13.Try out the latest technologies and stop by NEDO events.
Join us to experience the innovations making life more comfortable in the future.
The emerging technology of thin, lightweight, film-type perovskite solar cells generates electricity to power the bus shelter's nighttime lighting.
Ride to the Expo in comfort on an FC boat. Unlike a traditional boat engine, there is no vibration or fuel odor. A total energy management system has been developed to collect data on hydrogen charging and enable its efficient operation.
Level 4 autonomous driving buses charge wirelessly via coils embedded in the road. This demonstration aims to optimize electric bus operation and charging.
Synthetic fuel produced from hydrogen and CO2 at a one-barrel-per-day demo plant powers direct-service shuttle buses from Osaka Station to the Expo site.
Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology separates CO2 right from the atmosphere and is used to demonstrate processes such as methanation.
This innovative concrete uses recycled materials for low CO2 emissions and fixes a large amount of CO2 during production and curing. It is used in the construction materials and for ground improvement around the Expo site.
See how the environment can be saved by concrete that absorbs and fixes CO2 as you travel through time on an airship to the future.
Stroll down concrete sidewalks made with artificial limestone from recycled CO2. The Sumitomo Pavilion showcases various concrete products made from artificial limestone and other materials like resins, paper products and paints.
Based on the theme of the dream kitchen of the future, this exhibit features a futuristic device that automatically creates cultured meat using 3D bio-printing technology.
Explore technologies under development, like microalgae cultivation and biodegradable plastic containers, and watch videos that show how CO2 is converted into new substances.
Electricity for the Expo is generated with up to 30% clean hydrogen co-firing at the Kansai Electric Power Company’s large gas turbine power plant.
CO2 is recovered efficiently from the flue exhaust of the e-methane powered boiler in the back of house area and used as a raw material for dry ice and methanation.
In order to establish a stable supply network of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from waste cooking oil, a plant to produce it is being built near the Expo site.
From May 13 to 26, experience a future made possible by next-gen green data centers that reduce energy consumption by over 40% compared to conventional data centers. Also on display will be optical communications, power-saving equipment, and related technologies.
From May 18 to 24, videos and displays at the Fukushima Recovery Exhibition will showcase how the hydrogen produced at FH2R in Namie Town is being used even in areas far from Fukushima.
From July 13 to 19, come watch teams battle for the top spot in the World Robot Summit, an international event launched with NEDO’s support. Visitors will also be able to check out exhibits that portray a future where humans and robots live together.
For two weeks from September 2 to 15, NEDO will showcase the results of its Moonshot Research and Development Program.
On September 17 and 18, NEDO, METI, and JETRO are hosting an international hub event for investors and entrepreneurs from around the world that showcases startups working to solve problems.
