A Persian diplomatic office was later off relations with Japan in April 1942, and in 1945 opened in Tokyo in July 1930.

  • Fuel Cell Technology for Domestic Built Environment Applications: State Of-The-Art Review
    FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGY FOR DOMESTIC BUILT ENVIRONMENT APPLICATIONS: STATE OF-THE-ART REVIEW Theo Elmer*, Mark Worall, Shenyi Wu and Saffa Riffat Architecture, Climate and Environment Research Group The University of Nottingham, NG7 2RD (UK) *corresponding author email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Fuel cells produce heat when generating electricity, thus they are of particular interest for combined heat and power (CHP) and combined cooling heat and power (CCHP) applications, also known as tri-generation systems. CHP and tri-generation systems offer high energy conversion efficiency and hence the potential to reduce fuel costs and CO2 emissions. This paper serves to provide a state-of-the-art review of fuel cell technology operating in the domestic built environment in CHP and tri-generation system applications. The review aims to carry out an assessment of the following topics: (1) the operational advantages fuel cells offer in CHP and tri-generation system configurations, specifically, compared to conventional combustion based technologies such as Stirling engines, (2) how decarbonisation, running cost and energy security in the domestic built environment may be addressed through the use of fuel cell technology, and (3) what has been done to date and what needs to be done in the future. The paper commences with a review of fuel cell technology, then moves on to examine fuel cell CHP systems operating in the domestic built environment, and finally explores fuel cell tri-generation systems in domestic built environment applications. The paper concludes with an assessment of the present development of, and future challenges for, domestic fuel cells operating in CHP and tri-generation systems.

  • Japan Coal Phase-Out: the Path to Phase-Out by 2030 Summary: Japan Should Completely Phase out Coal by 2030
    Japan Coal Phase-Out: The Path to Phase-Out by 2030 Summary: Japan should completely phase out coal by 2030. █ Coal-fired power generation emits more carbon dioxide (CO2) than any other method of generating electricity. In order to achieve net zero emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) as called for under the Paris Agreement, it is crucial to quickly decarbonize our energy sources. According to several research reports, that means we need to completely phase Japan Coal Phase-Out: out coal power plants, which obviously means halting new coal plant construction and also strategically retiring existing plants. For coal-fired power generation in Japan, the country must cancel all current planning for new construction, and also retire all existing coal The Path to Phase-Out by 2030 power plants by 2030 █ There were 117 units at existing coal power plants in Japan as of April 2018, based on Japan Coal Phase-Out: The Path to Phase-Out by 2030 Japan Coal Phase-Out: government statistics and publicly available information, and this number includes many older and inefficient plants that have been operating over 40 years.

  • The Fukushima Nuclear Accident and Crisis Management
    e Fukushima Nuclearand Crisis Accident Management e Fukushima The Fukushima Nuclear Accident and Crisis Management — Lessons for Japan-U.S. Alliance Cooperation — — Lessons for Japan-U.S. Alliance Cooperation — — Lessons for Japan-U.S. September, 2012 e Sasakawa Peace Foundation Foreword This report is the culmination of a research project titled ”Assessment: Japan-US Response to the Fukushima Crisis,” which the Sasakawa Peace Foundation launched in July 2011. The accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant that resulted from the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11, 2011, involved the dispersion and spread of radioactive materials, and thus from both the political and economic perspectives, the accident became not only an issue for Japan itself but also an issue requiring international crisis management. Because nuclear plants can become the target of nuclear terrorism, problems related to such facilities are directly connected to security issues. However, the policymaking of the Japanese government and Japan-US coordination in response to the Fukushima crisis was not implemented smoothly. This research project was premised upon the belief that it is extremely important for the future of the Japan-US relationship to draw lessons from the recent crisis and use that to deepen bilateral cooperation. The objective of this project was thus to review and analyze the lessons that can be drawn from US and Japanese responses to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, and on the basis of these assessments, to contribute to enhancing the Japan-US alliance’s nuclear crisis management capabilities, including its ability to respond to nuclear terrorism.

Our primary purpose is to meet the increasing need for a systematic and sustained exchange of information with the electric utility industries around the world. In response to government policy, JEPIC also initiated technical cooperation programs for developing countries in the field of electric power soon after our founding. These programs remain one of our main activities today. Research and Information Activities JEPIC conducts research on the electric power industry in foreign countries in light of situations and issues facing the industry in Japan currently. We provide information from those studies in various ways to contribute to the industry worldwide. JEPIC also works to enhance cooperation with foreign electric utilities and other related organizations. International Exchange Activities JEPIC is promoting information exchanges with the foreign electric utilities and organizations in the electric utility industry by holding regular meetings, and taking part in international conferences and symposia. International Cooperation With the support of the member companies, JEPIC promotes integrated international cooperation programs for developing countries, mainly in Asia, for the purpose of improving power infrastructure and nuclear power safety in those countries and sharing of general information. These programs include human resource development efforts such as seminars that JEPIC coordinates. JEPIC both receives the participants of these seminars to Japan and dispatches experts to their countries. Including these seminar programs, JEPIC carries out the following tasks: • Cooperation with electric utilities in ASEAN countries • Technical cooperation under ODA programs • Technical cooperation for nuclear power safety Contents EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2 I.
