The electric facilities industry with a person and a dream and the purpose of life to value environment

Message

JECA (Japan Electrical Construction Association) was launched in 1948 with the name of Electrical Construction Society. We have been concerned to make the association upgrading and expanding, and electrical construction companies' encouraging initiative, seeking social status. 
We always cooperate with our members all over Japan, and work together with prefectural associations, manufacturers and distributers for various business of electrical construction. We have been involved in the growth and development of electrical constructions industries as national-center more than 60 years.
Now it's a serious problem to supply electrical power stably after the accident of Fukushima nuclear power plant on 3.11 (Great East Japan Earthquake). We maintain the important lifeline which supports economy, industry, and our life in Japan. So we should strengthen safety measures against natural disasters, correspond flexibly to the change of the situation of supplying energy, demands of saving energy. It's also important to provide the knowledge and technology for engineers working on site. 
Through these things above, we are expected to strengthen the saving-energy project and using renewable energy in a positive way to achieve the low-carbon society, which is our medium to long term policy.
We have such a societal demand, we still promote good electric construction business by various measures including the engineering improvement, the business foundation and stable source of manpower. Our mission is to make the electrical construction industry more attractive business with respect people and the environment. It will lead to find motivation in the works for the engineers.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
President, Kiyoshi Goto
