The devices recorded large amounts of data, including images and radiation dosage levels, marking a major step toward decommissioning.

  • 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.

  • Business Development of the Osaka Gas Group
    Business Development of the Osaka Gas Group [Domestic Energy Businesses] [Overseas Energy Businesses along the Energy Value Chain] [Environment and Non-energy Businesses] Osaka Gas Co., Ltd. 23 Domestic Energy Businesses [ Gas Business ] Characteristics of the Japanese Gas Industry ■ Although more than 200 gas companies exist in Japan, the majority of domestic gas sales volume comprises the gas sales volumes of a few major gas suppliers. ■ The industry’s supply of LNG, the primary source of natural gas, is almost completely dependent upon imports. ■ In contrast to many other countries, Japan does not have any international gas pipelines or gas pipe- lines interlinked nationally. ■ The natural gas business is operated in an integrated manner, from import to transmission, storage, distribution and sales. Special Qualities of Natural Gas Compared to other fossil fuels, natural gas has a much smaller impact on the environment. In addition, natural gas is more abundant than oil and, unlike oil, natural gas reserves are not concentrated in specific geographical locations. In particular, because of its environmental advantages, demand for natural gas as a more environmentally friendly energy resource is expected to increase in the future, reflecting increasing public concerns and awareness about the environment.

  • Japan's Gas and Electricity Market Reform: the Third Revolution
    JAPAN'S GAS AND ELECTRICITY MARKET REFORM: THE THIRD REVOLUTION Hiroshi Hashimoto Institute of Energy Economics, Japan - IEEJ Disclaimer: This paper is prepared for general informational purposes only and is not intended to influence any specific actions. Views expressed this paper are the author's ones but do not represent the organisation's ones. Japan's city gas and electric power industries are undergoing unprecedented but somewhat anticipated structural changes brought about by the recent regulatory restructuring. The process in fact dates back as far as 1995, when gas sales to the largest industrial customers were opened for competition. The ensuing regulatory measures have been considered and implemented extremely carefully so as not to jeopardise security of supply at affordable prices to end consumers in a country who does not have a lot of energy production within its territory. During the period the country's LNG market has successfully grown to be the largest and the most diversified in the world in terms of volumes, as well as numbers of both supply sources, importers and their receiving facilities, incorporating great flexibility in procurement with around 30% of the total volumes coming from short-term contracts and spot cargo purchases supplementing the main-stream long-term purchase contracts. In the latest stage of the industry restructuring, as the retail markets are opened for competition, city gas and electric power companies are entering into each other's home grounds by taking advantage of their own muscles and expertise, leading to the most unique, realistic and useful competition in the energy consuming market in the world.
