The Smart Grid, a next-generation system using IT to efficiently manage the demand and supply of electricity, is gathering attention as a new market. This year's CEATEC JAPAN show will promote a Japan-style Smart Grid system featuring environmental technologies related to green IT, saving, creating and storing energy, the Smart House, electric vehicles (EVs) and social infrastructures. In addition, a 3D theater introducing cities of the near-future coupled with smart grids will be unveiled. At the same time, the test driving EVs will be conducted.
Established in collaboration with fields within the
IT and Electronics industries, this exhibition area
is designed to provide a clear picture of Japanese
smart-grid developments.
In addition to welcoming visits from government
officers and a wide range of business customers from
the IT and Electronics industries and other sectors,
Smart Grid Innovation 2010 will fully exploit the
potential of the media gathered at CEATEC Japan
to promote smart-grid developments to interested
parties both domestically and internationally.

energy savings by IT ”, the council will present awards to products and technologies
that make an outstanding contribution to combating global warming.
At this world’s first facility, visitors will be able to
virtually experience a near-future visualization of
a low-carbon metropolis brought forth by a
Japanese-style smart grid.
Visitors will have the opportunity to drive a simulator
and compete with others to see who can hypothetically
reduce the most CO2, all within an ultra-high-definition
3D diorama that makes it seem that one has traveled in
time to the year 2030.
Mitsubishi Motors, a pioneer opening the doors of the
next 100 years in automotive society, has introduced to
the world its new-generation electric vehicle, the i-MiEV.
Thanks to superb eco-friendly performance and
maneuverability ? due to a very compact body,
excellent drivability, ease of operability, and a quiet,
