Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) announced that, the company submitted
today the Last Resort Supply Agreement, based on the Electricity Utility
Law, to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. This pertains to the
scope of liberalization to be extended to include all customers supplied
with high-voltage electricity from April this year.
The Last Resort Supply Agreement lays down the fees and other issues
related to the provision of electricity by TEPCO in exceptional
circumstances, such as to customers eligible for deregulation who do not
conclude a contract with any power suppliers.
Please note that the above purports to be an accurate and complete
