Japan Community Power Conference

Introduction
In preparation for the enforcement of the feed-in tariffs, the development of renewabe energy projects is accelerated in many areas in Japan. In the course of such development, the bottom up and cooperative approach among local stakeholders is important. And it is also important to introduce the mechanism which enables local stakeholders to receive the benefit of local renewable resources. Recently, such concept and approach create new trend called "Community Power" in the world. In Japan Community Power Conference, we will explore the keys for successful planning and implementation of Community Power through the dialogue among the domestic and international pioneers, the experts and the challengers of Community Power.
