Social Contributions
   
Extensive Social Contributions Using Abundant Management Resources
-
Contributing to society is our important management challenge, which is why Chugoku Electric applies its abundant human resources, facilities, experience, and other management resources to benefit the region and improve its culture.

From the sponsorship of concerts, lectures and exhibitions to volunteer work at welfare facilities and the homes of senior citizens living alone, and regional treeplanting and cleanup projects, the scope of our activities is extensive. To support the development of the Chugoku region, we assist local organizations, such as the Chugoku Economic Federation, the Industrial Development Center for Chugoku, and the Chugoku Regional Research Center. Chugoku Electric and affiliates established the Electric Technology Research Foundation of Chugoku in April 1991, and the Energia Culture and Sports Foundation in October 1994.

Through these organizations, we contribute to the development of technology, culture, and sports in the Chugoku region.

Volunteer Activities by Employees
In May 2001, Chugoku Electric celebrated its 50th anniversary. To commemorate this event and express our gratitude to our customers in the region, we implemented "Philanthropy Activities by 10,000 People," a project designed to emphasize the value of becoming personally involved in community activities. All of our 10,000 employees participated in cleanups, electricity education classes, and other community-interchange programs. We plan to continue activities under this project into the future.

We also use volunteer activities as a chance for our employees to apply their expertise for the region. In February 2002, we established a volunteer registration system and set up the Energia Volunteer Personnel Bank. Employee volunteers register their areas of expertise, which the bank can then apply in various activities that meet regional needs by acting as go-between and introduction agency.

   
Actively Promoting International Interchange
In this area, we sponsor charity concerts, and provide housing assistance to foreign exchange students in the region, to support them and encourage interchange with the regional community. In addition, the offices of the Honorary Consulate of Canada in Hiroshima and the Hiroshima Canada Association are located within our headquarters building, allowing us to assist exchanges between Canada and Japan. In line with increasing internationalization and the deepening problem of global warming, border-spanning interchange and cooperation between electric power companies is becoming more important than ever. At Chugoku Electric, we signed an agreement related to technology exchange with Kuosheng Nuclear Power Station of Taiwan Power Company. We also actively pursue international personnel and technological interchange, for example, by dispatching engineers to, and accepting trainees from overseas electric utilities via such organizations as Japan Electric Power Information Center, Inc.
