How about in Asia? /In Asia, Natural Gas price has maintained higher than the other region. /It allows nuclear development rather profitable. /Once a NPS reactor connect in the grid, natural gas producers lost potential market at least 4 years. /5 years after the Fukushima, Nuclear Industry has overcomed almost all issues to be solved. /Situation about nuclear development has changed very little.

15 Supply Share of Natural Gas is varied by countries. Japan maintain the largest volume of Import. After the Fukushima Nuclear Accident, Japan increase its NG import from 75Mt to 9Mt/year If NPS resume as expected, import volume will decrease to previous level.

17 After Fukushima, new regulatory system and severer safety standards are implemented. Reform of Nuclear Regulatory Organization /Independence Separate the functions for nuclear regulation and nuclear promotion Establish the Nuclear Regulation Authority(NRA) as an independent commission body Amendments to the Nuclear Regulation Act /New regulation on severe accidents /Regulation based on the state-of-the art information (backfiting) /4-years operational limit for NPPs (exceptional less-than-2 years extension) New Regulatory Requirement Principle of Regulation /Strengthening of Design Basis /Place emphasis of Defense-in-Depth /Severe Accident Measures /Eliminate common cause failure /Enhanced Measures for Earthquake/Tsunami /Protective measures for extreme natural hazards

18 Strengthening of Design Basis /Comprehensive consideration of natural hazards including volcano, tornado and forest fire in addition to earthquake and tsunami, etc /Reinforcement of fire protection measures /Enhanced reliability of SSCs important to safety (e.g. Redundancy of piping) /Reinforcement of off-site power supply (connection to different substations through multiple lines) /Protection of systems for Ultimate Heat Sink

19 There are 1s of mobile equipment provided in NPSs Resilience for AC power supply

20 Strengthen Requirement of Counter Measures for Severe Accident (SA) Prevention of Core Damage (ATWS, Loss of RCF RDF UHF etc.) Prevention of Containment Failure (CV spray, Filtered venting etc.) Prevention of hydrogen explosion at reactor building etc. Cooling at SFP Prevention of fuel damages during shutdown Emergency Response Center

30 Estimation for NPS supply recovery /NPS supply will recover by 22 exceeding the target of the outlook in 218 /If NRA reject the proposed TA related with fault line assessment, it still exceed the target. /If NRA agreed the fault line assessment, It will exceed the lever of before the accident /It reduce LNG demand about 15 to 2 Mt/year Nuclear Capacity & Electricity Generation Capacity Approved 214 Case Case3 217 Electricity Case2 22 Case3 221 target low target high 224

32 After years, power supply by NPS in Japan will recover. /NRA develops standard review process. -Sendai Unit1,2 133 days, 67 public meetings, 593 discussion meetings -Takahama Unit 3,4 15days, 62 PM, 413 DM -For BWR, Kashiwazaki is the model of standard review process /Major Reason of low capacity ratio in Japan since 2 -Earth quake ground motion exceed design base 4 times(24,26,27,29) - Falsification issues(22,26), Material troubles (25,26, 27-8) We need to consider next issue challenged by the industry. /NRA s permission for over 4 Years Operation NPS in 216 Takahama Unit 1,2 need to get approval by July 216 Mihama Unit 3 by Nov. 216 There is no fundamental technical issues to get approved. Kansai PC should prioritize /EDMG facility by 218 /Longer Post-Outage Period after 217 /New NPS development

34 Conclusion /Almost 5 Years has passed after the Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear Accident /Right after the accident, it caused delay of new nuclear development or phase-out movement in some countries. /Lately there are several new positive outcome observed. -Shin Kori-3 Connected to the Grid -Cold function tests have been completed at unit 1 of the Taishan nuclear power plant in China -Main AP1 pumps (RCP) pass qualification tests -Sendai NPS resumed in Japan. Takahama 1,2 enter the final process of 2 Years extension approval. /In U.S.A, NPSs struggle to compete with cheaper Natural Gas. /In Asia, higher Natural Gas price allows nuclear development much easier. /If Natural Gas producers expect to maintain higher price formula for next couple of years, they lose potential market for at least another 4 years.
