Corporate Profile

We designed a mascot called "eco tsumuri" (eco-snail) to symbolize our stance toward environmental issues, representing our will of "looking steadily to the future while moving on in close cooperation with local communities, not in a hurry or fret, but steadfastly." The antennae represent "electricity," with which the Tohoku EPCo Group brightly shines on the future Earth. The shell symbolizes the state of affairs that our environmental activities continuously improve in a spiraling-upward fashion.
