What’s in a logo?

Harmonious Society

The concept of contributing to a clean and harmonious society through a new energy business model is expressed in the soft and rounded lower-case lettering of the logo. It evokes a personal and close involvement with the daily life of consumers.

The letters “J” and “R”, “E” and “A” occupy the same rectangular shape, standing out in reverse from the background, and evoking the circulation of borderless energy in society.
