Figure 4.23: Comparison of net electricity production per 1000MW_e of installed capacity for a range of power-generation technology systems in Japan.

Source: Data updated from Uchiyama, 1996.Note: Analysed over a 30-year plant life, and showing primary fuel-use efficiency losses and transmission losses assuming greater distances for larger scale plants. Transport and distribution losses were taken as 4% for fossil fuel and bioenergy, 7% for nuclear.
