Neighboring Co-Generation (NCG) System is created to present the comfortable and high quality living environment, using combined power and heat (CHP) technologies. The key concept of this system is to connect the home and home for one loop of heat transfer line and level or manage the demand of heat consumption in the small community with high internet practice. This system is expected to optimum the heat utilization and to aim the higher efficiency than stand alone of the distributed generation system. And further expectation for the system is that this system will contribute to save energy, which is equivalent to abate over 50% of CO2 emission from homes due to the higher efficiency of CHP. In urban area of Kinki area, approximate 55% inhabitants live in condominium. Then introduction of the system will be expected to be able to cntribute to achieve CO2 abatement target for the Kyoto protocol. This system will also increase the availability of the co-generation system and improve the heat use management. For the realization of this system, the study group is established in AIST Kansai Center recently and the combination technologies of heat supply, heat storage and air conditioning are under development besides the Information Technologies (IT) application. This paper describes the new idea of energy supply system with participation of inhabitants for the energy network system.
