Japanese Electric power companies recognized the importance of utilizing coal in 1973 when the oil crisis occurred and the early introduction of coal for power generation began to be studied. Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc. aimed at the utilization of COM (coal oil mixture) to begin with and put into the commercial operation of No. 1 and 2 COM-fired units (each 265MW) of Yokosuka Thermal Power Station in 1985. Both units have been in favorable operation with an annual consumption of approximately 600,000 tons of COM.
