The following is a paper by Ms. Yoshiko Sakurai posted on the front page of the Sankei Shimbun this morning titled '49 kW trap' of solar power generation.
It is a must read not only for Japanese citizens but also for people all over the world, and readers will agree that it is natural that I have the highest respect for Ms. Yoshiko Sakurai.
You should consent and agree with my saying that there is no woman more suited for the National Honor Award than her.
I am emphasizing the sentence except the headline.
"The former Democratic Party ran to have a conclusion with solar power generation after nuclear power plant accident at Aftermath of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. We designed the system only based on a positive evaluation of natural renewable energy, but there is something that is frustrating for the occurrence of events that could not have been predicted at that time."
Watanabe Shu, a member of the former Democratic Party elected Shizuoka 6 ward, now deputy representative of National Democratic Party, said in this ‘Speech TV’.
Mr. Watanabe, along with Hosono Goshi of Shizuoka prefecture also elected, on August 22nd, it visited the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy, together with executives of 'Izu Heights mega solar lawsuit support group', and it requested the cancellation of the permission of the local mega solar construction plan in progress.
Once they have directed nuclear power station zero policies and launched renewable energy priorities, why do they now dispute?
‘Solar power that should be environmentally friendly destroys the environment and cuts down trees that absorb C02 in a large-scale felling of forests that should reduce CO2. Rather than making residents happy, they are reversing residents’ emotions. We are not opposed to solar power itself, but we have no choice but to oppose the reality that is happening,’ Mr. Watanabe said.
At Izu highlands, Korean capital ‘Hanhwa Energy Japan’ purchased a green plateau equivalent to 104 hectares (about 20 Tokyo Dome), cut about half of the forests, 120,000 glaringly solar panels A large-scale project to be built is in progress.
The lush landscape of Izu highlands will change completely.
It is because Shizuoka prefecture and Ito city, residents all oppose it, but Hanhwa started deforestation on August 10.
This summer when the heat was severe, the importance of stable supply of electric power, reduction of C02, renewable energy utilization is probably shared by everybody.
Naoto Kan who had legislated the Feed - in tariff (FIT) of natural renewable energy that started in 2012 should have thought so.
However, not only Izu highlands, but also the residents who are happening all over the country are now opposing campaigns indicating that photovoltaic power has largely deviated from the initial expectations and started to run away.
Runaway is not because solar power generation is bad. It is because the system design of Mr. Kan et al. was full of defects and they reduced solar power generation as means of easy gain.
Even though pursuing greedy profits there is no ingenuity such as obliging research and development of batteries to store solar light, for example, to make solar power generation truly useful.
According to the structure of FIT, each electric power company was obliged to purchase the entire amount of renewable energy at the initial price of approximately 42 yen per 1 kW at nearly double the international price.
The price has been fixed for 20 years, and the business person has long-term abundance of funds.
The purchase price is now 18 yen, but it is still higher than the international price.
Among the framework that brings huge profits to business people, the notably bad system is ‘49 kW trap’.
This draft continues.
