reactors (PWR) in China. AP1000® has also obtained design
certi cation from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC). Furthermore the NRC approved to construct and
operate the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant*1 and the V.C.
Summer Nuclear Generating Station*2, and have begun full-
scale construction work on these projects.
Overseas, the thermal power business continued a
strong performance. We maintained our number 1 position
and largest share in the North American steam turbine and
generator market for the ninth consecutive year, and we are
also winning an increasing number of orders in emerging
economies. In FY2011 construction work was completed on
the expansion of No. 3 and No. 4 at the Tanjung Jati B Coal
Fired Power Station in Indonesia. We have strengthened our
production capability for high efficiency thermal power
plants, a category where we anticipate demand growth in
emerging economies, by constructing a new plant to
manufacture steam turbine generators in India, where there
is robust demand for super critical turbine generators. In
addition, in geothermal power generation, we have
continued to win orders, notably in Patuha, Indonesia, and
in Kenya at the Olkaria geothermal power plants, the
country’s largest geothermal power plant complex.

The company supports the stable supply of electricity by
providing a wide range of power generation solutions:
nuclear power, thermal power, hydro power and
geothermal power generation systems, plus fuel cells.
In FY2011, despite the impact of yen appreciation,
Thermal & Hydro Power Systems continued to perform
well, contributing to increased sales that, in turn, produced
higher operating income.
In the aftermath of the Great East Japan Earthquake,
our top priority was to provide full support to Tokyo Electric
Power Co. and Tohoku Electric Power Co., so as to assure
the early recovery of thermal power plants damaged in the
disaster and the prompt resumption of operation of
mothballed thermal power plants. We also supplied gas
turbine generators and assisted to the recommissioning of
approximately 11 gigawatts of generating capacity. In
addition, Toshiba Group has channeled maximum resources
to cooperating with the Japanese government and Tokyo
Electric Power Co. in efforts to ensure the safety of the
Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. We are
contributing to the stable operation of stagnant water
treatment systems, “SARRY™.” our own contaminated water
treatment system and the stable cooling of nuclear reactors
and spent fuel pools. Furthermore, we are seeking to
advance the pace of environmental decontamination,
toward which we have developed portable gamma
positioning cameras that visualize areas of high and low
radiation levels in different colors, and deployed “SARRY-
Aqua™,” a mobile contaminated water treatment system,
and “SARRY-Soil™,” a mobile soil decontamination system.
In the nuclear business outside of Japan, group
company Westinghouse Electric Co. is making progress in
the construction of four AP1000® pressurized water
