The energy & CO2 reduction measures applying the Kyoto mechanism

1. The energy & CO2 reduction measuresapplying the Kyoto mechanism Dr. H. Masaru HOMMA Ph.D PE JpInt PE APEC Engineer IPEN

2. There ware 54 (17) nuclear reactors in Japan.(There are 48 (15) without 6(2) of Fukushima)No one is operating since Sept.16, 2013.

3. Based on the thinking of QBS we must evaluate energy best mix based on a quality evaluation namely three-dimensional evaluation that takes into account “environmental integrity” and “safety”

4. The percentage of the electric power in the whole primary energy usage is only ~50%.

5. When generation capacity of the nuclear power exceeds approximately 20% of all the electric power generation capacity, a surplus electric power occurs at the time of low demand.

6. In France, nuclear electric generation capacity became approximately 70% of all electric generation capacity, thanks to the flexibility provided by inter Europe High Voltage DCG.

7. A nuclear power station can provide a great amount of electric power to a distant metro-polis area, but cannot provide any electric power to the power station itself.

8. Several thousand tons of used nuclear fuels have been already accumulated in the whole country in Japan. Majority of them are in the water pool of nuclear reactor houses.

9. The radioactivity leakage risk by the collapse heat of the used nuclear fuel is not reduced at all whether the nuclear power plant is in action or not.

10. The major aim to promote the nuclear power generation is a concern of the national security, namely energy inde -pendence, rather than economic merits.

11. The renewable energy occupies approxi-mately 10% of all electric generation in Japan. Of which 9% is the conventional large-scale hydro-electric power generation.

12. The photovoltaic power has following merits in comparison with the wind power.There will be less trouble & no noise claims.It can be used without transmission facilities.

13. The author has installed a photovoltaic power generation system of capacity 3kW.Every day, he is enjoying the pride and joy of energy independence. Photovoltaic power generation system (3kW) on the four faces of the roof of the house.

14. The photovoltaic power generation is the most stable electric source if we enlarge our view to the whole world and conceive a global smart grid.

15. The renewable energy is a decentrali -zation type, whereas nuclear power and thermal power are centralization type.

16. When you install a small power system locally, you should better install it after bringing up a neighborhood association such as “a electric power system management community”. A management community for water supply & sewage in Yokohama

17. The consumption of the primary energy of the whole world is some 12,500 million tons.The world coal consumption occupies 29.9% of primary energy consumption of the world. Table 2 Primary energy consumption of the world (in oil conversion)

18. The coal consumption (in oil conversion ) in China is 1,870 million tons, which represents 50.2% of the whole world coal consumption.

19. The primary energy consumption in China is 2,730 million tons (in oil conversion).The ratio of the coal consumption of primary energy in China is approximately 70%. Table 3 Primary energy consumption of Cina (in oil conversion)

20. It was reported that in 2011, 9,900 people was killed by air pollution of the soot from the coal thermal electric generation in Beijing city, Tianjin city and Hebei county.

21. I have been living there for some 30 years, but have never trouble by the exhaust gas or the soot mine dust from ISOGO coal thermal electric power station of J-Power.

22. Isogo coal thermal power station achieved as high as 44% at designed thermal efficiency, using a method (USC) of raising pressure and temperature of the steam turbine to the limit.

23. When we apply this best practice to American, Chinese & Indian PSs, the total reduction effect of greenhouse gas will be achieved approximately, 1,460 million t-CO2.

24. The forum “Japan/China Energy Saving & Environmental Synthesis Forum” has been started in 2006 and continued after that. Indonesia had introduced USC coal thermal power generation system from Japan in 2011, And Malaysia too, last year. “The conventional notes of energy saving, environmental diagnosis and the facilities improvement of the Chinese coal-thermal power station” were concluded in 2007 .

25. The outbreak of “the debt” will not be ceased, even if we stop operation of nuclear power station immediately. • In addition, we cannot reduce already emitted carbon dioxide CO2, sulfur oxide Sox, nitrogen oxide Nox, etc. The collapse heat of the worn-out nuke puke does not stop anymore.

26. All we could do now as the next best policy is 1) to reduce effluent gas 2) no longer increase the nuke puke 3) to improve thermal efficiency of the fossil fuel combustion 4) to promote research & development of the renewable energy

27. Thank you !
