Japan Sees Growth in Hydro Power Despite Coal Shortage
Experts note Japan lacks abundant coal and oil but may substitute water power for electricity. Hydroelectric projects are in early stages with potential of up to 10,000,000 hp, only about 2,000,000 hp currently generated. Major firms like Daido Electric, Toho Electric, Tokyo Electric Light, and Ujigawa Electric plan expansion with rights to generate over one million hp. Governments may support new plants, cables, and heating works, while ambitions extend to Asia including China and Korea, leveraging untapped continental coal resources for electricity.
