- Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, Incorporated (TEPCO) engages in the generation, transmission, distribution, and retail of electric power primarily in Japan's Kanto region, including Tokyo, Yokohama, Yamanashi Prefecture, and the eastern portion of Shizuoka Prefecture. Established on May 1, 1951 and headquartered at 1-1-3 Uchisaiwai-cho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, the company operates through key segments including Fuel & Power, which handles thermal, hydroelectric, nuclear, and renewable energy generation along with fuel procurement; Power Grid, which manages transmission, substations, and distribution infrastructure; and Customer Service, which provides retail electricity sales and energy solutions to residential, commercial, and industrial customers. TEPCO maintains a diversified low-carbon energy portfolio, sells approximately 228.7 TWh of electricity annually, and supports peak demand of 55.25 GW, with affiliated companies numbering 133 and consolidated employees totaling 38,121 as of fiscal year 2023. Geographically, operations extend internationally through offices in Washington, D.C., and London for energy policy research, while domestic activities focus on core utility services and sustainability initiatives like carbon emission reductions. In recent developments, Niigata Prefecture Governor Hideyo Hanazumi approved the restart of two reactors at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant, the world's largest facility, in November 2025, pending local assembly confirmation to meet rising electricity demands from data centers and semiconductors; TEPCO partnered with AI Power in June 2025 for joint research on next-generation secondary batteries using AI-driven material exploration to advance battery energy storage systems; and earlier acquired Scottish offshore wind developer Flotation Energy to expand renewable capabilities globally. The company transitioned to a holding structure in April 2016, shifting thermal power generation to JERA, a joint venture with Chubu Electric Power, and continues Fukushima Daiichi decommissioning efforts including ALPS-treated water management and fuel debris handling. TEPCO, approximately 55.94% government-owned via the Nuclear Damage Compensation and Decommissioning Facilitation Corporation, reported consolidated net sales of 6,918.3 billion yen and net income of 267.8 billion yen for fiscal year 2023.
