It is estimated in Japan that the demand for electric energy will reach the amount of 3.8×10
11kWh and 80% of the quantity will be produced from the fossil and nuclear fuel in 1975. Moreover, numer ous consumers of electricity will converge on a narrow district so-called Tokaido megalopolis in days.
Many problems includig political and economical matter must be solved to provide for the above future situation.
In the technological field, the following thema of research and development are proposed.
(1) Utilization of heat rejected from the thermal electric power plants.
(2) Reduction of waste matter from the thermal plants.
(3) High efficiency, new energy conversion devices.
(4) Large capacity under ground transmission line.
(5) Offshore and undersea power station.
(6) Measure to counter the peak power demand.
(7) Revolutional power distribution system suitable for the over-crowded city.
