Chūgoku Denryoku KK ( Japanese 中国 電力 株式会社 , Chūgoku denryoku kabushiki kaisha ; literally: Electric energy Chūgoku ; short: 中 電 , Chūden or EnerGia ; English The Chugoku Electric Power Co., Inc .; short: CEPCO) is one of the smaller Japanese energy supplier.
The service area covers the Chūgoku region with the prefectures of Tottori , Shimane , Okayama , Hiroshima and Yamaguchi .
history
In April 1939, shortly before the start of the Second World War , all electricity-generating companies were nationalized and in 1942 they were merged into nine state-owned companies. At the instigation of Yasuzaemon Matsunaga , chairman of the council for the reorganization of the electricity industry, the Allied occupation authorities had these nine companies privatized on May 1, 1951, one of which was Chūgoku Denryoku. These initially retained their regional monopolies and, after the ineffective liberalization of the electricity market in 1995, regional quasi-monopolies.
Power generation
The Shimane nuclear power plant is owned by CEPCO. The Kaminoseki nuclear power plant is under construction and should go online in 2015 (Block 1) and 2018 (Block 2).

Incidents
On October 31, 2006, the Asahi Shimbun newspaper reported that the CEPCO had forged surveillance logs of Doyo Dam. The dam dams the Matano River. On November 15, it became known that large amounts of cooling water had been drained from the Shimonoseki power plant without complying with the necessary protocols, which the company ultimately had to admit. The whole thing led to a scandal, as investigations were already underway against Kansai Denryoku , Tōhoku Denryoku and Japan Atomic Power Company . The companies had falsified data from the monitoring of nuclear power plants.
