Japan's electric power systems • Demand • Japan is hot in summer and cold in winter. Because of such meteorological conditions, the seasonal variations in electric demand are large, and the load curves are very steep. For this reason, load factors are low. • The load curves of Japan's electric power companies basically look alike except for those load curves of Hokkaido Electric Power Co., but they slightly differ, depending on the difference in demand industry structures. • Power source portfolio • There are almost no energy resources other than water power in Japan, and Japan's electric power companies have constructed power source portfolios that allow for both energy security and cost efficiency. For this reason, the contents of the power source portfolio are similar but slightly different from company to company. • Structures of transmission networks • Japan is a vertically long and narrow country composed of four major islands, and the interconnection systems between electric power companies are skewer-shaped (they are DC connected not to make loop systems). • The frequency of electricity is different between the eastern part and western part of Japan (50 Hz in the eastern part and 60 Hz in the western part).

Power generation Transmission networks Retail business Consumer Japan's electricity industry • Pre-liberalization structure of electric power industry
Japan's electricity industry • Technological background of liberalization • Due to advances in power-generation technology, such as gas turbines, gas turbine combined-cycle systems, economy of scale does not necessarily work in power generation. • Liberalization of the Japanese power market • Regulations on new entries into power generation and retail business is eliminated and the principle of competition is introduced. • The monopoly in transmission, in which economy of scale is retained, remains, but transmission networks are made accessible to users. • From global perspective, form of the post-liberalization power market is divided into Pool system and Third party access (TPA) market. Japan adopted TPA market. • The liberalization of the power market
Power Producer X electric utilities W company Z company X electric utilities (network sector) Retailer Consumer X electric utilities Z company Y company • Japan's electricity industry Liberalized power market • Third party-access (TPA) market • A system in which third parties other than electric utilities transmit power using electric utilities ' networks. • Retailers ensure supply capacity, consistent with their demand curves, with their own power sources or through wholesale power transactions with other power suppliers. • Example • Germany,France, Japan, etc.
Japan's electricity industry Transactions in the TPA market • In most cases, a power exchange exists, and there are both transactions through the exchange and bilateral transactions between counterparties. • Industry firms including power producers and retailers participate in the exchange voluntarily, and conduct transactions to sell or buy electricity. • The exchange publishes agreed prices as market prices.

Outline of liberalization and roles of power exchange • Discussions on the liberalization of the electric power started in the early 1990. • Underlying the discussions are an increasing demand for eliminating Japan's high cost structure and differences between domestic and overseas prices of electricity and a trend for the deregulation of the telecommunications and financial sectors. • 1995 • Regulations on new entries into wholesale electric business were liberalized and competition was introduced. • 2000 • Competition was introduced into retail business targeting 2000 kW or larger customers (about 30% of all customers in terms of kWh energy). • New entrants (newly established electricity supply firms (PPS)) use networks through transmission services provided by electric utilities .
Outline of liberalization and roles of power exchange • Expansion of liberalization of the retail power market: The liberalization is expanded to 50 kW or larger customers (about 60% of all customers in terms of kWh energy) → Discussion whether the liberalization should be expanded to all customers is scheduled in 2007. • With the TPA-type market maintained, fairness and transparency is ensured when third parties (new entrants) use networks owned by electric utilities . • Establishment of the Electric Power System Council of Japan (ESCJ) • Conduct regulations imposed on electric utilities • A system to facilitate new entrants to procure power sources is introduced • Development of a wholesale electric power exchange • JEPX • Liberalization after April 2005
Japan Electric Power Exchange • JEPX Profile (1/2) • Japan Electric Power Exchange (JEPX) was founded as a limited liability intermediate corporation * on November 28, 2003, based on the purports of the report “Framework of the Desirable Future Electricity Industry System" presented by the Electricity Industry Committee of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. • This corporation is aimed at fostering the interests common to the partners thereof by opening and operating the wholesale electric power exchange that mediates spot transactions and forward transactions of electricity. * Intermediate corporation: a group that is not aimed at making profits but is aimed at increasing the interests common to its members (partners).

To supervise the actions taken by traders in the market to ensure fair transactions. To verify the amount of input into this exchange by electric utilities for a certain period (two years) after the opening of the exchange to ensure the liquidity of market. Administration office Dispute settlement committee (5) To arbitrate and settle disputes between members.
Japan Electric Power Exchange • Purposes of JEPX • JEPX is aimed at realizing the following purposes by operating a wholesale electric power exchange. To create price indicators that can be helpful in judging a risk of investment in power sources. To form market prices of electric power, which reflect demand-and-supply positions that fluctuate with seasons and time periods. To provide an arena where excess and deficiency of power sources can be adjusted through transactions between electric power companies. Individual firms have their respective load curves of different shapes. Therefore, it will be possible to use power sources more efficiently overall, if they make up for excess or deficiency of supply capacity with each other through the exchange.
