Concluding remarks

Establishment of smart communities is required to improve the quality of life

both in Japan and around the world.

It is important to develop and demonstrate smart community-related technologies in a real environment, deploying current smart grid technologies developed through previous development and demonstration activities. g p p

Public-private sector cooperation across various industries is necessary to establish smart communitiesestablish smart communities.

To realize smart communities around the world, it is crucial to facilitate international deployment activities and strengthen collaboration with overseasinternational deployment activities and strengthen collaboration with overseas organizations. JSCA will play a significant role in this.

NEDO will contribute to develop sustainable world through building smartNEDO will contribute to develop sustainable world through building smart communities.
