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.

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.

  • The Dojoji Tale and Ancient Bronze Metallurgical Traditions
    100 Reinier H. Hesselink: The Dōjōji Tale and Ancient Bronze Metallurgical Traditions The Dojoji Tale and Ancient Bronze Metallurgical Traditions REINIER H. HESSELINK1 The University of Northern Iowa, USA Abstract: A comparison of the motifs in the different versions of the famous Japanese folktale about the Dōjōji Temple leads the author to other tales which share some of the same motifs. In this way, he isolates two motif clusters, one on the theme of the mixed marriage between humans and snakes, and another one centered on the traditions of bell casting. In the Dōjōji Tale these motif clusters seem to have been joined by Buddhist authors eager to employ local pagan tales to write new stories with a Buddhist message. Next, the author translates two Chinese tales in which the same motif clusters appear. Although these tales show unmistakably the influence of popular Taoism, the similarities with the Dōjōji Tale are too striking to be coincidental. In his conclusion, the author proposes that the tales with these motifs were brought from China to Japan before the introduction of Buddhism (552). A Folktale from Japan Two Buddhist priests, one old and one young, go on a pilgrimage to Kumano. On their way, in Muro-no-kōri, they spend the night at the house of a widow. She takes a fancy to the young priest, and visits him at night. The priest refuses her, but to get rid of the woman he promises to come back to her after his pilgrimage is over. One their way back, however, the two priests avoid the house of the widow.
