Outline
New Renewable Energy
The recent heightened global concern over loads on the environment has come to increase the need for environment-friendly New Renewable Energy such as solar power, wind power, micro-hydropower, refuse-derived fuel power and biomass energy. In this field as well, J-POWER is leading Japan with its abundant experiences.
J-POWER leads the Japanese wind power field with its 9 wind farms with a total capacity of about 211 MW. In the field of refuse-fuel power, the company has been engaged in Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) Generation and a RDF plant with 20.6 MW capacity began operation in Dcember 2002.
In other countries than Japan as well, there are growing expectations for the renewable energy sources, which have a number of advantages as environment-friendly, distributed power source and are considered to be effective sources for rural electrification. J-POWER is actively engaged in this field of renewable energy as consultant in different countries: micro-hydropower in different parts of the world, especially in Asia; wind power inthe Philippines, Kazakhstan and the countries of the South Pacific; biomass in Thailand; and solar power in Botswana. |
