The Next-Generation Energy Park is a facility authorized by the central government as a regional base to greatly increase public understanding of next-generation energy in the global environment. This is achieved by increasing opportunities for the general public to gain first-hand experience with new energy sources such as solar photovoltaic power generation. In October 2007, the Nagasaki Next-Generation Energy Park became one of the first six next-generation energy parks nationwide to be authorized by the central government.
Principal Undertakings of the Nagasaki Next-Generation Energy Park
We are planning the following facilities in order to make the park a base for introducing Nagasaki's undertakings in new energy sources and for learning about energy.
Solar Photovoltaic System
Next-generation photovoltaic cells developed and manufactured in Nagasaki have been installed in 10 locations within Huis Ten Bosch. This is the largest installation of next-generation photovoltaic cells in the nation.
Solar Ship & Solar Boat
A solar ship and a solar boat run on electricity produced by photovoltaic power generation are under development so that the public can directly experience new energy sources.
Electric Vehicle (under development)
The vehicle runs after charging its on-board lithium ion battery from sources such as a home power supply and then activating the battery motor. Since it does not emit exhaust or CO2 when it is running, the vehicle is useful for preventing global warming.
Cogeneration System
In order to effectively take advantage of the energy found in natural gas, this cogeneration system utilizes the heat produced in the electric generator and can power electrical equipment such as air conditioners.
Nagasaki Next-Generation Energy Park -- Permanent Exhibition Facilities (Theme Pavilion)
The permanent exhibition facilities, located inside IFX Theatre Kirara, make the concept of new energy and the Nagasaki Next-Generation Energy Park easy to understand.
Huis Ten Bosch Solar Photovoltaic System Features
Next-generation photovoltaic cells installed in 10 locations within Huis Ten Bosch can generate a total of 900kW of electricity. All the clean electricity produced by these photovoltaic cells is used within Huis Ten Bosch, achieving local production of energy for local consumption.
- Generated output900kW
- Annual estimated outputApprox. 1 million kWh (equiv. to the power consumed by around 250 ordinary households)
- Annual estimated CO2 reductionApprox. 400t of CO2 (equiv. to the annual absorption by a tremendous amount of forest
- No. of solar panelsApprox. 7,000
- Installation areaApprox. 11,000m2
