Japan is a country prone to many natural disasters. There has been a further demand for Japan to improve the reliability of power supply than before the Great East Japan Earthquake. Given the topography of the country, the authors think that the Earthquake taught us how effective ship-to-shore power supply systems are in improving the reliability. This study is to estimate how much power can be supplied from coastal cargo ships moored at Tokyo Port. For calculation purpose, the authors used ship specification data listed in the annual "Register of Ships" published by the Japan Shipping Exchange, Inc. and port mooring facility specification data on the Tokyo Port Facilities List. The result of the calculation showed that 230 moored ships at the port can provide up to 197,000kW, which accounts for 23% of the total amount of power that can be supplied from 2,314 registered coastal cargo ships in Japan.

<p>  As a way to improve the combustion characteristics of wood tar which is highly viscous and flame retardant, the authors blended it with liquefied dimethyl ether (DME), which can improve fuel fluidity, ignitability and spray atomization. Moreover, heavy fuel oil (bunker-c oil) was added to increase the heating value of this fuel sample. The sample, which has the blending ratio of 35 % wood tar, 30% DME and 35% bunker-c by weight, was used in a combustion test with a three-cylinder in-direct injection diesel engine. Additionally, the authors also investigated particulate matter (PM) produced after burning four samples that mixed liquefied DME with flame retardant fuels in the same engine to analyze its environmental and biological impacts. The four samples prepared for the experiment were (1) 70% distillate oil (bunker-a) and 30% DME; (2) 85% bunker-c and 15% DME; (3) 70% bunker-c and 30% DME; (4) 35 % bunker-c, 30% DME and 35% wood tar.</p><p>  The results of the engine test suggested the possibility that wood tar could become more combustible by optimizing the flow rate of fuel and the blend ratio of liquefied DME and bunker-c. In the (4) case, PM showed no high mutagenic potentials and there were lower concentrations of such inorganic substances as vanadium and nickel. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) concentrations in PM decreased by blending liquefied DME with bunker-c, whereas did not decrease for the wood tar.</p>

Japan Railway Construction, Transport and Technology Agency (JRTT) has developed three types of SES for domestic coastal ships and promoted their wide use under the support of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. These three types of SES, the Line Shaft CRP type, the Tandem Hybrid type and the Twin POD type were developed in cooperation with shipbuilding companies and marine equipment manufacturing companies. In total, 17 SES type ships have been delivered and currently three more SES ships are under construction. JRTT, research organizations and engineering and manufacturing companies are now jointly promoting the development project of Twin-propeller type SES as a new type of SES in addition to the three existing SES. Twin-propeller type SES is expected to give higher performance and lower building costs in comparison with the other SES and all other similar type of ships.
