Comparison of CO2 emission of different electricity generation systems g-CO2/kWh *Figures on Coal,Oil,LNG,Nuclear and PV1 are estimated by Hondo(2000). Figure on PV2 is recalculation on Nakano(2006),using eq.(1).Figures on several types of SPS are estimated by our group. *Life time assumption on Multi-Tether Satellite system; 40 years. *Total repair ratio of Multi-Tether Satellite system is assumed to be 2.5%,CO2 emission /kWh becomes 33g, if it is permitted to assume it simply. *CO2 emission in distributing the electricity generated is not included in the SPS figures (since the data is not available) but is included for the other systems. →several types of SPS
