On December 5, Eurus Energy Group celebrated the buildup of Eurus Hitz kitanozawa Cliff Wind Farm, a project jointly promoted with Hitachi Zosen at Higashidori-mura, Shimokita-gun, Aomori Prefecture. (Total output of 12MW)

On the cliff of Shimokita, the northeastern end of Honshu known for its high winds throughout the year, six units of wind turbine generator from Gamesa Eolica(Spain), each having an output capacity of 2MW, are installed. All of the electric energy generated will be sold to Tohoku Electric Power Co.,Inc.

This wind farm will start operation soon and the installed capacity of Eurus Energy wind farms will increase to 250MW in Japan and 1,340MW in the world.

An official ground-breaking ceremony was held in Aridagawa Town, Wakayama Prefecture, to commemorate the start-up of Eurus Energy Group's first wind farm project in Kinki Area.

The ceremony was attended by the celebrities representing the local governments, Kansai Electric Power Co., Inc., and local businesses, who played a hoe, offered a sprig of sacred sakaki tree and prayed for the safety and successful completion of the project in accordance with solemn Shinto protocol.

According to the Aridagawa Wind Farm Project, it is planned to install 10 sets of 1,300kW wind turbines in a site spanning about 2 km east to west along the ridges of the Nagamine Mountains bordering on Aridagawa Town, Kainan City, and Arida City.

This project is scheduled for commercial operation in December 2008 and one of the largest wind farms in Wakayama.

The Okawara Wind Farm with a total output capacity of 19.5MW is planned to be built on the Okawara Highlands, Tokushima Prefecture, as a joint undertaking of Eurus Energy Group and Yonden Engineering Co., Inc., an affiliate of Shikoku Electric Power Co., Inc., and a groundbreaking ceremony was held today to pray for the safety and success of the project.

This wind farm is on the heights at an elevation of about 1,000 meters above sea, and 15 wind turbine units, each rated at 1.3MW, will be installed. This project will be the first large-scale wind farm in Tokushima, and one of the largest wind farms in Shikoku District.

This wind farm is scheduled to be put into commission in October 2008, and all of the power generated will be sold to Shikoku Electric Power.

Eurus Energy America joined the WINDPOWER 2007 Conference & Exhibition held in Los Angeles for 4 days from June 3 to 6, 2007, promoting Eurus Energy Group's activities through various media including panels and company brochures.

This conference and exhibition is the North America's largest and most anticipated event for wind energy sponsored by the American Wind Energy Association every year, and this year has marked the largest ever event of collaboration among the wind energy industry with 7,000 attendees and more than 400 exhibitors.

Under the corporate philosophy, "Helping to Preserve the Global Environment by Disseminating and Expanding Clean Energy Technologies," Eurus Energy has been driving forward with its wind power projects. At the WINDPOWER 2007, Eurus Energy has attracted attention as one of the most active leaders advocating and implementing the virtues of wind energy.

Eurus Energy Group and Kinden Corp. will shortly start the construction of Shin Izumo Wind Farm with a total output capacity of 78MW, the largest of its kind in Japan. A solemn ceremony was held on February 17, to pray for the safety and success of the project, with the participation of a horde of celebrities including the Mayor of Izumo City and officials representing Shimane Prefectural Government.

The project will install 26 wind turbine units of Vestas, a Danish manufacturer. Each unit is rated at 3MW, the largest and first-ever of its kind in Japan. In addition, Shin Izumo Wind Farm is our first project in Chugoku District.

The construction starts in this February, and the wind farm will be put into commission in 2009. All the power generated will be sold to Chugoku Electric Power.

Since the area within which the project is sited is treasured for its historic, cultural and scenic values, the wind farm layout is elaborated to go well with such environment. Born in March 2005 as a merger of two cities and four towns, Izumo City is pushing forward with its "Grand Design for the 21st Century Izumo", and is promoting the harmonization of industrial activities with environment through the use of renewable energy. In this context, the wind power project is the great hope of Izumo City. Eurus Energy is determined to make every effort to complete the project safely as scheduled to live up to the expectations of local communities.
