Damages to Energy Infrastructures

Working Group 5 (WG5) was organized with support from the JSME Power and Energy System Division to investigate energy policies and to research and analyze various issues related to energy infrastructures, such as nuclear power stations, thermal power stations, hydroelectric power stations, power transmission and distribution systems, gas stations, and oil factories. In order to cover a broad range of topics, the four sub-working groups (A: Nuclear Power, B: Thermal Power, C: General Equipment of Energy Infrastructures, and D: Energy Policy) were established within WG5 from the standpoints of production, supply, and use of energy. The significant results obtained by each sub-working group are reported herein.
