東京電力 (Tokyo Electric Power Company, TEPCO) is one of the largest electric utility companies in Japan. It provides electricity to the Kanto region, which includes Tokyo and its surrounding areas. TEPCO plays a crucial role in the country's energy supply and infrastructure. The company gained international attention after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011, which was triggered by a massive earthquake and tsunami. This incident raised concerns about nuclear safety and led to significant changes in Japan's energy policies and regulations. TEPCO has since focused on improving safety measures and transitioning towards more sustainable energy sources.
