Also in Japan,we provide services to a total of 794 MW. Our service technicians stationed at 15 site offices support the efficient operations of turbines in all over Japan. In addition,there are a total of 460 MW currently under construction,and we will provide operation and maintenance services for many of them once they become operational.
