About Tokyo Gas Co. Ltd.

Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd is based in metropolitan Tokyo and the Kanto region and serves approximately 9.2 million customers in a service area covering 3,155 km2. Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. and its 18 consolidated subsidiaries operate in five segments: gas sales, gas appliance sales, related construction, real estate rental, and other. Other segment consists of businesses including district heating and cooling systems, sales of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), industrial gases, system engineering and comprehensive engineering.

Supply Area and Pipeline Network

The company has pipeline extending a total of 49,431 km. In order to ensure the long-term, stable supply of natural gas, Tokyo Gas has built a 300-km natural gas supply loop encircling the Tokyo metropolitan area, incorporating three LNG receiving terminals (major one of which is the Sodegaura LNG Terminal).

Business Expansion into Energy-Related Areas

The Company will expand into new value-added energy business fields in natural gas and related businesses. The company will also engage itself in the construction of a value chain extending from upstream to downstream areas, consisting of the upstream development and LNG transportation business, the electric power business, energy services, overseas business, and new residential services such as insurance and home security.

Electric Power

The Company is building power plants fueled with its natural gas to provide the foundation for expansion into the electric power business. The company has established subsidiary Tokyo Gas Bay Power Co., Ltd., and built a 100 mW power plant at the Sodegaura Terminal. The company is also planning to construct a 900 mW power plant jointly with Nippon Oil Corporation and a 1,200 mW power plant with the Shell Group.

Energy Services

Business development in this area will be led by ENERGY ADVANCE Co., Ltd., which will provide onsite one-stop services covering everything from energy services, gas and electric power supply, and engineering to maintenance.

In July 2002, Tokyo Gas established ENERGY ADVANCE Co., Ltd to function as a total energy service provider for the buildings, factories and urban development projects of companies and local governments. The company will concentrate its operations in three business areas on-site energy services, district energy services, and installation and maintenance of cogeneration systems.

Upstream Development and LNG Transportation

Tokyo Gas is branching out into the areas of upper and midstream LNG businesses, including overseas development of gas fields and liquefaction plants as well as LNG transportation.

Darwin LNG Project

Tokyo Gas participates in the entire LNG chain, from gas production and liquefaction to sales and transport using its own LNG carriers and marketing. Tokyo Gas is currently building two LNG carriers, which it will own and operate. The Company will use its new carriers to expand free-on-board (FOB) transactions in order to procure competitive LNG by reducing the freight costs.

Overseas

The Tokyo Gas Group has had numerous successful overseas projects including involvement in building and managing gas supply infrastructures. The establishment of Malaysia’s first natural gas distribution business and gas-fired district cooling business was the first full-fledged international project by a Japanese energy utility, and has been regarded as a model for other Asian countries.

New Residential Services

In the residential segment, Tokyo Gas is developing businesses for electricity (residential fuel cells) and other utilities besides gas, as well as providing home-related services including remodeling, installation and maintenance of facilities and equipment, insurance, financing, and home security.

Establishment of Tokyo Gas Customer Service Co., Ltd

Tokyo Gas established Tokyo Gas Customer Service Co., Ltd in April 2002 and began outsourcing its customer service operations – such as periodic safety checks, meter reading and bill collection – in parts of Tokyo Gas’s service area in July 2002. Support for this outsourcing will come from Enesta*, a group of franchised, community-based outlets for gas-related operations.

Non-Life Insurance Business

Tokyo Gas entered the non-life insurance business in January 2003. Tokyo Gas and Enesta became agents of Sompo Japan Insurance Inc. in order to sell a product that insures household effects against fire, which was jointly developed with Sompo Japan.

Strategic Alliances

Tokyo Gas Co. Ltd., as of March 2009, is partnering with Kyocera Corp. to sell residential energy systems based primarily on gas and solar power. Tokyo Gas has developed a 'double generation' system that combines a solar power generator procured from Kyocera with its own Ecowill cogeneration system, which operates off an engine that runs on city gas.

ANALYSIS FEATURES

SWOT Analysis

SWOT, which stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, is an analytical framework that identifies the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable for a company.

Enhanced SWOT Analysis

Enhanced SWOT is a 3×3 grid that arranges strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats into one scheme:

• How to use the strengths to take advantage of the opportunities?
• How to use the strengths to reduce likelihood and impact of the threats?
• How to overcome the weaknesses that obstruct taking advantage of the opportunities?
• How to overcome the weaknesses that can make the threats a reality?

Upon answering these questions a company can develop a project plan to improve its business performance.

PESTEL Analysis

PESTEL (also termed as PESTLE) is an ideal tool to strategically analyze what influence different outside factors – political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal – exert on a business to later chart its long term targets.

Being part of the external analysis when carrying out a strategic assessment or performing a market study, PESTEL gives an overview of diverse macro-environmental factors that any company should thoughtfully consider. By perceiving these outside environments, businesses can maximally benefit from the opportunities while minimizing the threats to the organization.

Key Factors Examined by PESTEL Analysis:

• Political – What opportunities and pressures are brought by political bodies and what is the degree of public regulations’ impact on the business?
• Economic – What economic policies, trends and structures are expected to affect the organization, what is this influence’s degree?
• Sociological – What cultural and societal aspects will work upon the demand for the business’s products and operations?
• Technological – What impact do the technological aspects, innovations, incentives and barriers have on the organization?
• Environmental – What environmental and ecological facets, both locally and farther afield, are likely to predetermine the business?
• Legal – What laws and legislation will exert influence on the style the business is carried out?

IFE, EFE, IE Matrices

The Internal Factor Evaluation matrix (IFE matrix) is a strategic management tool helping audit or evaluate major weaknesses and strengths in a business’s functional areas. In addition, IFE matrix serves as a basis for identifying and assessing relationships amongst those areas. The IFE matrix is utilised in strategy formulation.

The External Factor Evaluation matrix (EFE matrix) is a tool of strategic management that is typically utilised to assess current market conditions. It is an ideal instrument for visualising and prioritising the threats and opportunities a firm is facing.

The essential difference between the above mentioned matrices lies in the type of factors incorporated in the model; whilst the latter is engaged in internal factors, the former deals exceptionally with external factors – those exposed to social, political, economic, legal, etc. external forces.

Being a continuation of the EFE matrix and IFE matrix models, the Internal External matrix (IE matrix) rests upon an investigation of external and internal business factors integrated into one suggestive model.

Porter Five Forces Analysis

The Porter’s five forces analysis studies the industry of operation and helps the company find new sources of competitive advantage. The analysis surveys an industry through five major questions:

1. What composes a threat of substitute products and services?
2. Is there a threat of new competitors entering the market?
3. What is the intensity of competitive rivalry?
4. How big is the bargaining power of buyers?
5. How significant is the bargaining power of suppliers?

VRIO Analysis

VRIO stands for Value, Rarity, Imitability, Organization. This analysis helps to evaluate all company’s resources and capabilities and bring them together into one aggregate table that includes:

• Tangible resources
  • Financial
  • Physical
  • Technological
  • Organizational
• Intangible resources
  • Human
  • Innovation and Creativity
  • Reputation
• Organizational capabilities

The result of the analysis gives a clear picture of company’s competitive and economic implications, answering the questions if the resources mentioned above are:

• Valuable?
• Rare?
• Costly to imitate?
• Organized properly?
