Who We Are

Japan Electric Power Information Center, USA (JEPIC-USA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2017. 

We aim to be a hub of research and international information exchange- enabled by our sister offices in Tokyo, Paris, and Beijing- with a focus on electric power and broader energy and environmental issues for the benefit of the general public in the United States, Japan, and other countries.

JEPIC-USA tracks and analyzes relevant developments in the U.S. energy and environmental sectors, such as policy agendas, electricity power markets, regulations, and private sector business models, in order to better inform the Japanese industry and government. However, our efforts also aim to share Japanese advancements with the US.

We believe we can enhance communication channels and build partnerships across country borders and among the industry influencers, enabling them to create a future where energy systems are increasingly efficient, affordable, sustainable, and secure.

What We Do

JEPIC-USA's two primary objectives are to provide research and analysis-as regards the energy and environmental sectors- to interested parties and to foster outreach and education.

Our researchers conduct detailed research and analysis of the issues in which they specialize. These results are compiled as research reports and published on the website, our monthly newsletter, or journal. 

JEPIC publishes an annual booklet called, "The Electric Power Industry in Japan (EPIJ)".

This book, which has been well received by industry leaders from around the globe, explains the structure, current status, and important topics of the Japanese electric power industry.

We hope EPIJ will help you better understand Japan's electric power industry.
