Because nuclear power stations are ordered to stop running one after another in regular inspection, Kepco(stands for Kansai Electricity Power Co.inc) announced us to save electricity in order to compensate for the shortage of electric power caused by suspension of those power stations' running.
By the way, The governor of Osaka prefecture referred to the problem and stressed he wouldn't cooperate with saving electricity. He told KEPCO to reveal the evidence for necessity of saving electricity.
But, his statement is not coherent with his former statement that nuclear power stations should be abandoned gradually. I wonder if he can't consider the shortage of electricity occurs when all the nuclear power stations owned by KEPCO are abandoned.
Even though he promotes alternative energy and thinks it will cover current electricity generated by nuclear power stations.
He is just an unreasonable populist. I see.
