THE KANSAI ELECTRIC POWER CO., INC.

The Kansai Electric Power Co., Inc. (Kansai EP) has

been serving the power needs of the Kansai area since its

establishment in 1951. Through more than half a century it

has developed and operated its own power stations, secured

the diversified resources indispensable to their operation,

and delivered the generated power with optimum efficiency

and reliability to customers throughout the region.

Geographically, Kansai EP’s service area is remarkably

expansive, covering nearly 29,000 km2. The Company’s

output is equally impressive: in the fiscal year ended March

31, 2007, sales reached 147.3 billion kWh — almost equal

Company is reinforcing its position in core electricity

operations while simultaneously striving to implement

management reforms that will enable Kansai EP to achieve

new growth to take it solidly into the future.

KANSAI — THE HEARTLAND OF JAPAN

Kansai, the area served by Kansai EP, forms the cultural,

historical, industrial and commercial core of the Japanese

archipelago. From the treasured ancient capitals of Nara and

Kyoto to the bustling business centers of Osaka and Kobe,

Kansai continues to mark dynamic growth in the 21st

century.

Although Kansai covers a modest 8% of Japan’s land

area, it accounts for a stunning 16% of the nation’s gross

domestic product. The region, with a population today

numbering more than 20 million, has long served as Japan’s

economic dynamo in segments spanning from

manufacturing to services. A remarkable number of the

nation’s leading business enterprises trace their beginnings

to Kansai, and today they continue to achieve steady growth

driven by innovative technologies in their respective fields.

As the nation’s economy today is once again on solid

ground, the Kansai region is concentrating its complete

roster of resources — its vitality and wisdom — to ensure

the area’s sustained and dynamic growth in this first century

of the new millennium.
