Renewables are valuable domestic energy resources for Japan, and its rapid penetration is expected because they are indispensable for both the prevention of global warming and maintaining sustainability. Cost competitiveness with conventional energy resources, stable supply, and recognition of the dierent regional situation of renewables, are key issues to accelerate for the use of renewable. In April 2014, three years after the Great East Japan Earthquake, Fukushima Renewable Energy Institute, AIST (FREA) was established in Koriyama city of Fukushima. As a part of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), FREA aims to be a global innovation hub concerning renewables, through creative “Fukushima” technologies. FREA also contributes to revitalize the aected area, by developing new industries and human resources.We would like to collaborate with you all in this challenge. We appreciate your continued support. Director-General Masaru Nakaiwa3
