    11 2. Initiatives contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society ・Lowering electric power’s carbon intensity ・Technological developments for constructing the Smart Grid ・Contributing to energy conservation, cost reductions and CO2 emissions reductions for customers and society ・Overseas activities ・Technical development efforts ・Value chain efforts ・Efforts to reduce other greenhouse gases in addition to CO2 2.Initiatives contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society 12 Initiatives contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society Our company joined the Electric Power Council for a Low Carbon Society, and the industry as a whole is seeking to achieve an emission factor of about 0.37 kg-CO2/kWh (user-end) by fiscal 2030. We will continue the utilization of nuclear power generation with the most emphasis on safety, the maintenance and improvement of the thermal efficiency of thermal power plants, and the development of renewable energies. In addition, with a long-term perspective, we will contribute to the realization of a low carbon society by promoting electrification in society. ○Changes in CO2 emission factor, etc. ※ Our CO2 emission factor for fiscal 2017 was 0.418 kg- CO2 /kWh (after adjustment), and it was great improvement compared to the previous fiscal year. Main factors that we can give are our efforts toward carbon reduction through increased utilization rates for nuclear power, hydroelectric power and, at our Himeji No.2 Power Station, high-efficiency natural gas power generation facilities. 2.Initiatives contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society 13 Initiatives contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society ■Effect of nuclear power generation on CO2 emission reduction Nulear power can greatly contributes to CO2 emission reduction because it does not emit CO2 during the generation unlike fuel power which uses fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas.

  • Toyama's Thrilling Nature and Tasty Food
    Toyama’s Thrilling Nature and Tasty Food In the middle of Honshu, Japan’s main island, there are three mountain ranges running from north to south. These are the Japan Alps, commonly known as “the roof of Japan.” One of them, the Northern Japan Alps, has the Tateyama Mountain Range to the west and the Ushirotateyama Mountain Range to the east. The Tateyama–Kurobe Alpine Route, which links Toyama Prefecture and Nagano Prefecture, is known as one of the world’s best mountain sightseeing routes, and its grandeur and beauty enthrall visitors. Come the fall especially, many visitors, both Japanese and foreign, take the journey by train through the hidden scenery of the Kurobe Gorge in search of the splendid autumn colors. I visited Toyama to explore its abundant nature and delicious food. Mikurigaike Pond Journey through Hidden Scenery Awakens the Five Senses Have you ever heard the rather unfamiliar word garuppe? It means “devil’s river” in the Ainu language, and one theory says this is the origin of the name Kurobe, the place I am about to describe. Garuppe, it is said, evolved into garube and then Kurobe. In order to explore Kurobe, I took the Kurobe Gorge Railway from Unazuki, which is famous as a hot-spring resort, to the final stop, Keyakidaira. This train is nicknamed the Torokko Densha, torokko referring to the carts used to carry stones and debris from construction IHCSA Café International Hospitality and Conference Service Association (IHCSA) sites. Originally the Torokko Densha was only used to transport materials for the development of power resources, but after local people and sightseers expressed a strong wish to see the spectacular scenery of Kurobe Gorge, it became a tourist train carrying ordinary passengers.

  • Encyclopedia of Shinto Chronological Supplement
    Encyclopedia of Shinto Chronological Supplement 『神道事典』巻末年表、英語版 Institute for Japanese Culture and Classics Kokugakuin University 2016 Preface This book is a translation of the chronology that appended Shinto jiten, which was compiled and edited by the Institute for Japanese Culture and Classics, Kokugakuin University. That volume was first published in 1994, with a revised compact edition published in 1999. The main text of Shinto jiten is translated into English and publicly available in its entirety at the Kokugakuin University website as "The Encyclopedia of Shinto" (EOS). This English edition of the chronology is based on the one that appeared in the revised version of the Jiten. It is already available online, but it is also being published in book form in hopes of facilitating its use. The original Japanese-language chronology was produced by Inoue Nobutaka and Namiki Kazuko. The English translation was prepared by Carl Freire, with assistance from Kobori Keiko. Translation and publication of the chronology was carried out as part of the "Digital Museum Operation and Development for Educational Purposes" project of the Institute for Japanese Culture and Classics, Organization for the Advancement of Research and Development, Kokugakuin University. I hope it helps to advance the pursuit of Shinto research throughout the world. Inoue Nobutaka Project Director January 2016 ***** Translated from the Japanese original Shinto jiten, shukusatsuban.
