  2. The damage of power plants caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake • After the great east Japan earthquake, the main central Pacific coast suffered extensive damage and power generation has experienced a sharp decline. The shutdown of large thermal power plants, in addition to nuclear power plants, is a leading cause.In the summer of 2012, the restoration of power plants is on track. A call for the cooperation of all was launched to achieve energy savings without setting numerical targets. On the other hand, nuclear power plants have been out of operation.The Fukushima No. 1 has reached a state of cold shutdown in December 2011. Hachinohe（25） State of restoration State of operation on 20 March 2011 (The numbers in parentheses represent output (×10,000kw).)

  3. Measures taken in the electricity sector following the Great East Japan Earthquake A target energy savings of 15% was set for summer 2011. Large electricity users are ordered to restrict their consumption based on the low. Power was supplied from distant areas and independent producers shared their production. Demand decreased from 16.58 million kW in the summer 2010 to 12.46 million kW. Supply increased to 13.03 million kW. As a result, the planed blackouts were avoided. Consumption restrictions for large users (Art. 27 of Law on the electricity sector): 550 hours between July 1 and September 9.Implementation of projects to support energy conservation and orientation meetings for small users.Aid to the installation of new and additional private power generation Supply Demand Decommissioned sites following the earthquake Peak In summer 2010 (5 /8/2010) Decreased hydro capacity following damage caused by torrential rains 15.57 million kW Peak In summer 2011 (9 /8/2011) 16.58 Million kW 5/8/2010 12.46 Million kW 9/8/2011 13.03 Million kW 9/8/2011 Lower temperatures compared to the previous yearDecline in demand following the earthquakeEnergy conservation efforts Summer 2010 (result ) Summer 2011 (result) Summer 2011 (result)
