The reseult of Investigation of Sustainable Saving Electricity -New Vista for the Future by Delphi and Scenario Survey –

NISTEP has been investigating how to develop of sustainable saving electricity since 2011. In March 2011, we were concern about blackout in Tokyo area because of the two nuclear power plant utility firms in Fukushima suffered extensive damage from the March 11th disaster. The Japanese government is asking industries, local governments, embassy and also households to save power in various ways. Fortunately, because of huge those efforts by all sectors, we didn’t get any blackout without plan. However, many people especially who is working for industries against to keep continue those conditions such as working time shift, changing air conditioning operation system etc. that deeply relating life style. Also, it’s difficult to keep such patience a long time.
Based on those circumstances, we investigated the real condition about such saving electricity and we discussed the sustainable saving electricity by the expert. Furthermore, through Delphi and a Scenario investigation, we grasped what kind of things a sustainable saving electricity of technology and system, also we examined the prospects to the future about sustainable saving electricity based on those result.
