Abstract
Based on the proposal of the forum on the Northeastern Japan Revival in the7th Biomass Science Meeting last January 2012, we have been discussing with people and local governments of Iwate, Miyagi, and Fukushima Prefectures for supporting the revival activities from the disaster 3.11 2011 in Northeastern Japan by utilizing biomass energy. Especially, efficient utilization system of non-utilized biomass resources including wastes caused by the disaster should be established in terms of their collection, storage and transportation in the local areas, in order to design the energy supply center of cogeneration of heat and power for public facilities such as schools and hospitals. In addition, combined utilization system of biomass with other renewable energies is to be developed through the intimate communication and exchanging information with local people and governments related to such biomass utilization schemes.
