3 The impact of the earthquake on the automobile industry and suppliers

Many automakers and suppliers were forced to stop and/or reduce production in the North East region. In the auto sector, consisting of supply chains of companies from many layers and fields, the lack of just one part or component could have a serious impact on the automobile industry as a whole.

 Damage to parts and materials suppliers temporally made it difficult for several automakers to operate normally soon after the earthquake.  Production has resumed earlier than expected because of substitute production, reconstruction of suppliers network and also great efforts to recover.

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.

Effects of Disaster Nissan Iwaki Factory in which more than 370,000 Nissan and Infiniti engines are produced annually was badly damaged. Windows on the plant’s roof, ducts and pipes fell down and it was unsafe to go back inside. For Nissan, more than 50 dealerships and parts suppliers were damaged, and production across Japan shut down completely.

Status of Recovery Resumption of full production was originally scheduled for early June, but it resumed on May 17, two weeks ahead of schedule.

5 Damage from the Great East Japan Earthquake and recovery (2)

Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.

Effects of Disaster The Shin-Etsu Group has approximately 30% of the global share of silicon wafers. The main silicon wafer plant, the Shirakawa Plant, “Suffered from 1,000 gals of shock from the earthquake, and its cleanrooms and some equipment were damaged.”(Fumio Akitani, vice-president )

Shin-Etsu Shirakawa Plant Status of Recovery (Saigo, Fukushima ) On April 20, partial operations were restarted. On July 1, the Shirakawa Plant’s production capacity recovered to pre-earthquake levels.

Renesas Electronics Corporation

Effects of Disaster Naka factory produces 20% of Renesas’s microcontrollers and System-on-a- Chip solutions. There was partial damage to the ceiling, walls, electric wiring and some equipment.

Status of Recovery Renesas Naka factory Renesas expects it be capable of significantly moving up the schedule by (Naka, Ibaraki ) one month from the end of October to the end of September when the supply capacity of Naka factory will return to pre-earthquake levels. 6 Damage from the Great East Japan Earthquake and recovery (3)

Sumitomo Metal Industries, Ltd.

Effects of Disaster Damage to the Kashima steelworks was confirmed mainly at the port facilities and upstream manufacturing facilities. There was also damage within the steelworks, such as damage to the coke gas holders and the auxiliary facilities Sumitomo Metal, Kashima Steelwork (Kashima, Ibaraki) of the blast furnace.

Status of Recovery Kashima steelworks was restored at high speed and it took only four days from the earthquake before its first shipment. On April 30 it resumed normal operation.

Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation

Effects of Disaster Production of ethylene in the Kashima plants accounts for 10% of that in Japan. Since infrastructure around the plant area including the berths and roads were also damaged, delivery and shipment of cargo became Mitsubishi Chemical Kashima Plants (Kamisu, Ibaraki ) impossible. The ethylene plants were stopped after the earthquake.

Status of Recovery The Kashima No 2 plant was restarted on May 20, and the Kashima No 1 plant was restarted on June 30. 7 Damage from the Great East Japan Earthquake and recovery (4)

Companies Situation after the earthquake Status of recovery Toyota Some factories suffered damage. Damage to parts Production was approximately 70% of normal in Motor suppliers caused trouble in the global production June, on a global basis. Now, production in Japan Corporation network. Toyota expected that production at has basically returned to pre-earthquake levels. normal level would be recovered later this year. Hitachi Sawa works (auto-parts manufacturing factories) Operation of the Sawa works restarted on April 4. Automotive were damaged due to the earthquake. Now, production capacity has recovered to Systems The company has approximately 60% of global pre-earthquake levels share of air-flow sensors. Hitachi The main factory in Hitachinaka City which Since March 28, production of lithium-ion Vehicle produces lithium-ion batteries for vehicles batteries has resumed and shipment overseas Energy suffered damage. restarted. Hitachi ltd. Damage to buildings and facilities was confirmed Production partially resumed at the end of May. at Hitachi’s main production bases in Ibaraki Operation with full capacity resumed mid April.

IHI The facility of Soma Aero-Engine Works (items On March 29, partial operation at buildings where corporation produced: parts for aero engines, gas turbines the effects were minor were restarted. Full and space development equipment) was shut operation was resumed mid May. down.

Targets for 2020 Normal Chargers (NC): 2 Million Quick Chargers (QC): 5,000

 EVs should basically be charged by NC at night.  A certain number of QC should also be installed as a “safety net”.

How do we start? At the Market Preparation Stage, we build infrastructure intensively and systematically mainly in EV/PHV towns  Establish infrastructure development guidelines  Compile EV/PHV town best practice handbook (including business models ) → Pave the way for the Diffusion Stage 18 Creating Initial Demand in EV/PHV Towns

To create initial demand, provide incentives to promote the introduction of vehicles, as well as improve recognition of local residents through wide usage of vehicles and combining various methods appropriate for each region’s characteristics.

Introduction support, tax benefits. Reduce vehicle related costs.

Spread information through internet. Conduct educational classes on environment, etc.

32 Standardization of EV

With progress in modularization of auto parts and components and, with expansion of system-wide automobile industry, it is now more important than ever for automakers to make strategy taking account of standardization.  It will become more important to conduct a close exchange of views on international standardization among each governments and industries.
