Peak capacity and peak load are for all electric utilities in Japan.
Peak capacity is the largest possible supply capacity; peak load is the average value of the three highest daily loads at
the transmission end occurring during the month in which the annual peak is recorded.
Energy requirement is the total annual demand for electric utilities in Japan.

Uses and Sources of Funds for the EPCos

JEPIC

apan Electric Power Information Center, Inc. (JEPIC)

was established in 1958 as a non-profit association of
the electric utility industry in Japan in order to meet the
increasing needs for a systematic and sustained exchange
of information with the electric utility industries in the
world. Soon after our establishment, JEPIC also initiated
technical cooperation programs for developing countries
in the field of electric power as one of its main activities in
response to the government policies.

Research and Information Activities

JEPIC conducts research on the electric power industry in
foreign countries in light of situations and issues facing
the industry in Japan currently. We provide information
from those studies in various ways to contribute to the industry worldwide. JEPIC also works to enhance cooperation with foreign electric utilities and other related
organizations.

Exchange and Cooperation Activities

JEPIC is promoting information exchanges with the foreign electric utilities and organizations in the electric utility industry by holding regular meetings, and taking part
in international conferences and symposia.

International Cooperation
With the support of the member companies, JEPIC promotes integrated international cooperation programs for
developing countries, mainly in Asia, for the purpose of
improving power infrastructure and nuclear power safety
in those countries and sharing of general information.
These programs include human resource development efforts such as seminars that JEPIC coordinates. JEPIC
both receives the participants of these seminars to Japan
and dispatches experts to their countries. Including these
seminar programs, JEPIC carries out the following tasks:
Cooperation with electric utilities in ASEAN countries
Technical cooperation under ODA programs
Technical cooperation for nuclear power safely
