Digital Twin and 3D Technology for Asset Management of Electric Power Facilities	We define digital power generation and substation facility as 3D technology build digital-twin (creating a “twin” in cyberspace identical to a physical object). This proposal is to contribute to efficient work in project cycle (planning, construction designing, operation and maintenance) for power plants and substations through digital-twin. This technology can be applied to transmission and distribution facilities as well, but the generation facilities and substations are likely to benefit first as these facilities are about management of a cluster of equipment. To be more exact, we aim to improve efficiency in all stages of operation, by visually managing the entire process. This is made possible by making a 3D model (point groups, 3D-CAD (BIM)) of the structure of equipment in generation and substation facilities. We will then link information of all equipment (such as manufacturer specification, local condition, equipment monitoring data) to 3D model data for each equipment unit.

Landslide Remote Monitoring System	By installing observation equipment such as a rainfall meter, surface extensometer, surface inclinometer, and groundwater level meter on a slope where there is a risk of sediment disasters, and collecting those measurement data on the cloud server, the condition of the slope can be visualized. Since the manager can grasp the condition of the slope from a remote place, it is possible to take an early response such as an evacuation order. In the vicinity of the monitoring slope, it is possible to notify the local residents of the danger by using a rotating light or a siren. The equipment composed of the system can be battery-powered due to its excellent low power consumption design. And it is resistant to electrical shocks such as lightning, and can withstand long-term use. Moreover, even in mountainous areas where the communication environment is not well prepared, it is possible to provide a highly reliable monitoring system over the long term because of the communication technology that reliably transmits data.

Infrastructure monitoring cloud system OKIPPA (Inclination / Expansion & Contraction)	Infrastructure monitoring cloud system (OKIPPA) is a system that can monitor the inclination and the expansion & contraction just by installing a sensor box. In the conventional technology, the data is transferred by a specific low power radio that requires the installation of equipment such as a base station and wiring. However, this technology uses low-power wide-area wireless communication (LPWA), which does not require the installation of self-employed base stations or wiring, so it can be used for a long time at low cost. In addition, labor saving and efficiency improvement of inspection work can be expected not only during construction but also during maintenance during operation. Also, it is a system that can be used in other countries by changing only the communication parts in the sensor box.
