ここでの検査方法は上記のサイトにもありますが，一次検査と二次検査があります。一次検査では A1, A2, B などの判定結果がつけられます。これは，しこりなどの大きさの判定であり，この結果はそのまま手術が必要ながんであるかどうかとかいう基準ではないというおことわりがあります(http://fukushima-mimamori.jp/thyroid-examination/)。治療の判定は判定委員会によるということでした。検査と治療とは別になることは注意が必要です。
おしどりさんは，OECD Nuclear Energy Agency の会議へも参加し，取材をしています。これは原子力産業の会議です。会議参加者の中には，原子力産業のセールスの人たちもいてその人たちに取材ができたそうです。セールスとしては，フクシマ以前は「事故は起きない」ということを主に，フクシマ以降は，「起ってもあまり問題はない」というセールスを展開するような戦略を推奨するとのことです。特に事故の起こった地域の住民が自分で帰還し，住み続けることを決め、自ら除染することはモデルケースとなるので業界としては後押しするべきだという意見があったという報告でした。また，特に原爆を経験した日本が原発事故を大丈夫で問題ないとすることは業界にプラスになるという情報が共有されていたということでした。[:]
レントゲン写真は役に立つだろう。でもレントゲンを取ったことのある人なら，レントゲンを取るお医者さんがその部屋から毎回出ていくのを知っているだろう。レントゲン写真で使う X 線も人間の体には害を及ぼすからさ。そこにいたら危険なんだ。だからお医者さんはいつも他の部屋に行くんだ。役に立つものでも危険なものはいっぱいある。
[:ja]2016 年 2 月 1 日に何人かで Berlin の Fasanenstrasse にあるソーラーハウスを見学する機会がありました．このソーラーハウスは Bundesministerium fürUmwelt, Naturschutz, Bau und Reaktorsicherheit によって実験として建てられたものです．プロジェクトは Effizienzhaus Plus mit Elektromobilität と言い，「電気自動車を含む効率的家屋プラス」とでも訳せばいいでしょうか．
ドイツでは家屋では暖房でのエネルギー使用が大きいので，窓は 3 重構造の熱を伝えにくいもの，換気には熱交換器，暖房はヒートポンプを利用し，南側と北側は大きなガラスで採光を重視，また，電灯は LED を利用，壁も断熱を重視するなど，様々な省エネの技術を利用しています．また電気エネルギーだけで全てすむようにガスなどは利用されていません．
私がこの家を見て思ったことは，「こんなボーグキューブみたいな家には住みたくないな」でした．ただ，これはこの家が3年で解体する実験予定だったことや，建築家のデザインによるもので，他の Effizienzhaus Plus には「この家なら住んでみたい」というものもありました．また外観は私の好みではありませんが，内装は良かったと思います．
自然エネルギーの他のもの，例えば風力も，風力と見てわかるようなものではまだまだかもしれません．それはオランダの風車のように風景となる方向に進歩するかもしれません．もしかしたら遠くから見たら木のように見える風力発電機ができるかもしれません．垂直軸発電方式など既にある技術がやがて景観を考えたデザインとなる日が来るでしょう．風力発電地域はいつか森のようにしか見えないという時が来るでしょうか．いや，本物の森の木々の中に気がつかないように風力発電機がある，そういう形で技術が成熟していくのかもしれません．発電所は自然がいっぱいある公園であるという未来をふと想像してしまうような家でした．[:en]At February 1st, 2016, some of us visit to a solar house in Berlin, Fasanenstrasse. The minister of Environment, nature protection, construction, and reactor safety (Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz, Bau und Reaktorsicherheit) built the house as an experiment of energy efficient house. The name of project is “Effizienzhaus Plus mit Elektromobilität.” This means efficient house plus with electric mobility.
They built 35 experimental houses in Germany. Each house has own outlook designed by different architect. The house in Berlin is shown in the picture. It has a modern cubic shape. But of course there are houses that outlook is a classic German house, too.
Effizienzhaus Plus in BerlinAn explanation session in a Effizienzhaus Plus
The house is called an efficient house however also “plus” is in a name. The goal of this house is to show “generating more energy than consuming it through a year.” This includes the energy of one electric car. In the experiment process, a few public offered families live in each house for a year. Two families lived in this house so far.
The house generates energy by solar panels and store it in the batteries. The architect puts the panels on the west and east side walls and the top of the house. It would be more efficient if the panel is at the south wall, however, a typical family consumes energy in the morning, the afternoon, and at night, but not in the noon time. If they use energy directly, it is more efficient. The south side has a large glass window to get the sun light. The architect made outside looking more important than the panels efficiency, so he has chosen a specific color panels but lower energy efficiency (10 to 15%).
Heating is the largest energy consuming component of typical house in Germany. Therefore most of the effort of saving energy is related with heating. In this house, the triple layer glass is used for the window. The ventilation system uses a heat exchange mechanism. The heating uses a heat-pump system. Efficient LED lights are used for the illumination. The wall is made of low thermal conductivity materials, yet the material is recycle friendly. All the house system is adapted to use electric energy, then the house doesn’t have other external dependency for energy.
Triple glass window panes with low heat transfer
The result of the first year did not generate all the energy they consumed. The house could only generate the energy consumed in the house, but not for the car. But this is an experiment. The researcher monitored the energy consumption details in the house and found the two unexpected behavior. One is the low efficiency of heat transfer system. It didn’t work as in the specification from the provided company. Thus, they exchange the device. The second problem was the energy consumption of the living room. This room was connected to the staircase and the heated air just ran away from this connection. So the architect put a glass door. The result of the second year (with the second family) was successful. The house generated the energy more than the family consumed including a car electricity. The architect thought that the motion sensor was good for saving energy for lights, but the first family had a cat. and they found out this was not so efficient.
It’s interesting for me that this house just lack of “one door” despite all the high technology for saving energy. The experience is useful. Another interesting issue in the report was about the mindset of the family. The family realized they don’t need to save energy, since the house generate it. So their mind set becomes a bit more extravagance about energy. I understand this, but is it a good for society at the end? I am not sure. This could be a question for the next experience. The architect prefers the fixed window, which you cannot open them, for the energy saving point of view. But, the family reported it is important to be able to open the window manually. It is also important for a house not only for the energy, but the house is the big place where the life is going on. So the house keeps the window that you can open them manually. All these results are published as following (online).
My first glance of this house was, “I don’t want to live in this house. It looks like a Borg cube!” But this is based on a specific architect and he has also limitation in design. The original plan was for three years experiment for this house and the architect can only use some limited technology. There are 35 different designs of the Effizienzhaus Plus. I found some houses attractive. But I like the inside design of this house.
My impression is that the technology is matured. This house was built at 2012. At that time, the German technology of this area was
Energy generation instead of energy saving
I first said about the design. This means that it is already not the technical issue even in my mind. I felt the design was important. I felt that the technology is matured. I recall when the five color iMac showed up in 1999. For me, the most important factor of a computer is performance, memory, and functionality. I thought “iMac? Power PC 750, 266MHz, sounds nice, but isn’t the main memory too small?” However, some of my friends told about iMac, “Which color did you buy?” I was shocked. Why color? Later I looked back that time, the computer becomes commodity. The design is very important if you put it in a house instead of an office. I understand when something became common in your life, the design matters.
The same as this house, the architect chose a specific solar panes color, and he has chosen a low efficiency panel (10-15% efficiency). He had chosen the design over the efficiency, yet to aim the primary goal. For the next generation solar panels, I think they need more colors. I already heard about such research for solar panels. The technology will create the solar panels of any colors, then we will not notice that is a solar panel one day. The design will be more important than the energy efficiency. If a house with green solar panels, you could not distinguish the house and the garden from the distance.
Other natural energy generators would go to such direction. For instance, a wind turbine would look not a wind turbine. One direction would be windmills in Netherlands, that made the scenery itself. Or a wind turbine looks like a tree. There is an vertical axis wind turbines. Maybe we could make a turbine that resembles a tree which fits in a forest. The wind turbine area becomes a park mixed the silent turbines and real trees. This is one direction of this technology. One day, we have a power plats that is a natural park. I imagine that kind of the future and I see it is good.[:]
[:en]What can we (citizens) do to promote green energy? I sometimes think about this. There are of course many ways. Today I will introduce one of the methods using sharing economy.
The sharing economy is a type of economy that people share the goods and services. People share: code for open source, auction places with eBay, cars with Uber, rooms with Airbnb and CouchSurfing, and so on. Sometimes it is over the range of sharing and cause troubles, but, this sharing economy is popular these days.
Can we use the idea of sharing economy for green energy? I live in an apartment. I don’t have a roof for solar panels. I don’t have a garden to put a small wind turbine. However, now we have the Internet. Can someone connect between who has a roof and who wants to invest solar panels?
Yeloha [1] is an U.S. start-up company for solar sharing network, founded April 2015. For example, anyone can borrow one solar panel per year for US $64. The generated electricity will be sold to the market and some percentage will be return to the investors. Was it a good investment? Well, it is not sure as the usual investment. However, I would like to invest the future of the green energy as a citizen and definitely this helps green energy industry. Yeloha has developed a special software, that can estimate how much electricity can be generated in a year depends on the location and the building[2].
I like this idea and business. I hope the similar sharing with wind turbine, bio-gas, and other green energies. I am looking forward to
seeing this kind of activity or company in Japan and Germany, too.
Today (2016-1-23(Sat)), we see the oil price is low. Some people think that “this is good, we can use oil.” But now is the time to invest to green energy since we can use lower price energy today to prepare for our future. The green energy is local and distributed, so its price can be stable and not global like the oil price. I believe oil price will raise one day, I don’t know when, but, I believe it definitely will. To prepare that day, I would like to invest to green energy now.
