The Targets for the Town

To make Tsunashima SST a next-generation smart city, numerical targets have been set as the community’s overall goals for the environment, safety, security, and other areas.

    Reduced by 40%
  • Water usage:
    Reduced by 30%

    More than 30% of total

■Safety Targets

CCP※3
3 days

A community continuity plan (CCP) is a plan for maintaining operations vital to a community until the resumption of normal conditions after a natural disaster or other emergency. It applies the concept of a business continuity plan to a community. As a next-generation smart city in which different facilities create a synergistic effect, Tsunashima SST has established a CCP for optimizing the allocation and use of energy, information, manpower and supplies, by focusing on each facility’s characteristics through a combination of self-support and cooperation.

■Security Targets

Community monitoring
100%※4
Response time in community
15 minutes※5

■Global environmental certification

Certification target: LEED ND※6
 

With the goal of serving as a model community for Japan and the world, Tsunashima SST aims to acquire certification under LEED ND (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Neighborhood Development), a global system for evaluating environmental performance. Each individual facility also sets its own environmental targets, such as acquiring LEED Platinum level certification.
