Looks like most of the talking was going on overseas, eh ! GLE's mentioned 3/4's the way down the page, I used altavista babelfish to translate from Japanese to English ... babel.altavista.com

- The collaborative research project of Japan IBM and personal computer power source management start
As for Japan IBM, as a new match to environment, decreasing the electrical amount used of the IT equipment and leveling the use electrical load
in the peak time zone of electrical use (peak shift) in order to promote, the collaborative research project which centers the technology of
personal computer power source management is started, it announced.

- 0 Kurita Water Industries, Ltd. than

the E environmental.com (the water processing major company), it announced the fuel cell business where spread is anticipated as a dispersed
power source of the next generation (the FC) it enters. The HPower corporation which is American venture enterprise of the FC (American New
Jersey state) with it cooperated, acquired 30 ten thousand stocks of the same company stock for approximately 180 ten thousand dollars, capital
participated. Vis-a-vis HP, it monopolizes supplies the water processing technology which is essential technology of the FC. As for Kurita, with
the thought of expanding business in the FC market for home where in the future spread is anticipated, also the other powerful manufacturer is
the policy positively of groping cooperation.

0 economic industrial ministries, from 2001 2 years, concept (concept) on the 21st made that it examines and it examines the actual proof model
clear the electric power which in the outer space generates electricity by solar energy it transmits electricity to the ground with radio wave " the
space solar generation of electricity system (the SSPS)" destined for utilization. At the time of electric power supply because two carbon oxide
(the CO2) discharge it contributes to the prevention of terrestrial warming not only, large electric power supply of 100 ten thousand kilowatt
classes is possible at zero, it becomes also drastic power source diversification step. 200 ten thousand kilowatt classes for space actual proof
(generation of electricity scale of the generation of electricity satellite section) the practical system is developed by 2030, toward utilization of
2040 years aims. The mechanism where the SSPS the geosynchronous orbit (high-level approximately 3 ten thousand 6000 kilometers) with
generates electricity with solar energy, that transmits electricity to the ground with microwave, converts to direct current and electric power
supplies. Stable electric power supply becomes possible regardless of the difference and the weather or four seasons of day and night.

0 it is to come is, in order business of energy-saving-related business such as solar optical generation of electricity strongly to assure conversion,
it started cross organization " energy-saving propulsion project team " inside the company. The main office and Tokyo head office, each division,
to that the member 43 person is elected from the branch office * branch office of entire country, section exceeds and can exchange new technology
and information " horizontality development " is advanced. Improving the proposition power for the customer is the aim. As for the same
company to draw up the energy-saving proposition pamphlet " it is to come is energy-saving support program " by the October last year and
solar optical generation of electricity et cetera, it distributed to the self-governing community and the like of entire country, started the real
development of energy-saving business of the same company. The latest project team started with the purpose which furthermore makes this
activity promote.

0 Yamato house industry accelerates development of the door building residence which has the wind force generation of electricity system. In
order to strengthen data acquisition destined for merchandising, wind force generation of electricity test at the hotel which the subsidiary
company manages this summer with the goal of from the present 2 places it increases to the total 8 place. On the basis of the test result, it is the
thought of liking to stuff concrete merchandising such as sale time. As for wind force generation of electricity as for theme such as noise and cost
it is not little, but the increasing of interest of the consumer for environmental problem is received, potential demand seeing it is high, hurries
merchandising. The same company advancing development output approximately 100? With the wind force generation of electricity system of
approximately 150 watts, the to in-house manufacturing it examines with the direction which is converted. It appeals as the environmental
corresponding commodity which it comes after solar optical generation of electricity residence " environmental optical room ".

It announced 0 Toho Gas Co., Ltd., installed the experimental residence which does the appraisal test of the fuel cell for home which is expected
as the energy system of the next generation, inside the same company comprehensive technical laboratory of Aichi prefecture Tokai city, began
experiment. As for experimental residence 1LDK of wooden flat house. The mechanism which equips the television and the air conditioner, the
refrigerator, the personal computer, gas floor heating and the gas ぶ ろ, et cetera controls with the timer. After starting making general home similar
electric power and the demand fluctuation of heat, work efficiency of the fuel cell is checked.

- From daily mail magazine " automobile news & the column "

* the economic industrial ministry, in the car which energy efficiency the above uniformity is improved the " conformity label "

* the adding Global Thermoelectric corporation, the flat type SOFC (the solid oxide type fuel cell) with mass production start of pilot plant work. The auxiliary power source which the BMW is developed (the APU) in business and the like supply
[ the Nikkei BP corporation ] the http: The //dm.nikkeibp.co.jp

& Kato engineering and research, the cyclone type Diesel waste gas purifier, when selling * Hiroshima prefecture, collecting

the waste food oil " flower echo project of private group greens " of Hiroshima which in the Diesel alternate fuel

" is contrary to playback law " prefecture Oasa Cho, collecting the waste food oil which comes out of general home at 50 ten thousand Yen rank,
the prefecture and the like " without permission of municipalities if you collect the rubbish and you convey, pointing out vis-a-vis the activity
that, it will be played back in the gas oil alternate fuel for the Diesel engine, you violate to waste disposal method ", it waited you applied. The
prefecture approaches modifying bylaw vis-a-vis Geihoku wide area environmental facility union, in order to parallel to exceptional rule, even
within half year * the NEDO

, is low to approval the pollution car financial help quantity of 2000 in the same number as the preceding year,

new energy * industrial technology comprehensive development mechanism (the NEDO), it is low proposal reception of the pollution car grant
of 2000 amount, it ended at February 20th, low the pollution which is helped in 2000 car reached 9685 units of the same number as the preceding
year. As for breakdown CNG car 2279 units and electric automobile of preceding year ratio 61% increase as for 436 units and hybrid car of 3.4
times in 6970 units of preceding year ratio 14% decrease.

* It announced the Hankyu bus, as for the DPF test Hankyu bus on the 15th, the Diesel particulate removal device

(the DPF) you install the Osaka and Kobe highway * Kobe line in high-speed shuttle bus 2 it travels experimentally with the Osaka and Kobe
