Current status of electric power engineering in Japan

일본전력 기술의 현화

The Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan (JIEE) was founded far back in 1888, in the very dawn period of the electric power utilities, For the past 93 years since its establishment, the JIEE has been contributing much, in the same manner as you, towared technological progress and industrial growth in many fields of electrical engineering in Japan. Now, I am very happy to say that it will certainly be a matter of great significance for the Institute of Electrical Engineers in both countries to exert their cooperative efforts for establishment of new technologies towared the future. Today I would like to introuduce you the current status fo electrical power engineering in the Japanese electric utilities and to refer to the future R and D tasks coping with the severe energy situation.
