経済，社会の情報化は一層進展し，高度情報化社会の到来が予想されている。電気事業においてもこれら経済，社会の変化に対応した電気事業情報システムの構築が重要な課題となる。本報告は２０００年における高度情報化社会を展望し，これに向けての電気事業情報化の課題について検討したものである。１）高度情報化社会の展望についてはその特徴を「情報処理技術の大衆化」および「情報通信ネットワーク社会」として捉え，その影響と問題点を明らかにした。２）電気事業高度情報化については，主要課題として「電気事業ＯＡの推進を取り上げ，その必要性，方向性および留意事項を明らかにするとともに，将来の課題として「需要家との情報連係と経営多角化」の問題を提起した。

概要 （英文）

IT IS THE GENERAL OPINION OF THE MAJORITY THAT THE INFORMATION BASED SOCIETY IS NOW RAPIDLY PROGRESSING AND WILL TURN TO A SO-CALLED ADVANCED INFORMATION SOCIETY IN THE NEAR FUTURE. PROSPECTING THE ADVENT OF SUCH A SOCIETY, MANY COMPANIES ARE ACTIVELY TRYING TO JOIN INFORMATION RELATING BUSINESSES. THIS REPORT FIRST GIVES A VIEW OF THE ADVANCED INFORMATION SOCIETY IN 2,000, AND THEN EXAMINES SEVERAL ITEMS TO CONSIDER NOW FOR THE ELECTRIC POWER INDUSTRY. THE STUDY INTHIS REPORT IS PERFORMED UNDER THE CONTEXT THAT THE ELECTRIC POWER INDUSTRY SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY OF COMPUTER AND COMMUNICATION TO DEVELOP AN OWN INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE COMING SOCIETY. THE PRINCIPAL RESULTS FROM THIS STUDY ARE SUMMARIZED AS FOLLOWS: 1)THE ADVANCED INFORMATION SOCIETY CAN BE CHARACTERIZED IN (A) THAT COMPUTERS AND THEIR RELATED TECHNOLOGIES ARE COMMONLY USED IN ALMOST ALL ASPECTS OF THE SOCIAL ACTIVITIES, AND (B) THAT THE ACTIVITIES OF THE SOCIETY CAN INTERACT OR COOPERATE WITH EACH OTHER THROUGH COMMUNICATION NETWORKS. 2)THE PRINCIPAL SUBJECT WHICH WE HAVE TO UNDERTAKE NOW AS A STEP TOWARD THE FUTURE INFOMATION SYSTEM FOR THE ELECTRIC POWER INDUSTRY IS PROMOTING OFFICE AUTOMATION TO IMPROVE DAILY WORKS IN EACH OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. FINALLY, NETWORKING WITH THE CONSUMERS AND BUSINESS EXPANSION OF ELECTRIC POWER INDUSTRY INTO COMMUNICATION SERVICES WILL BE THE MAJOR PROBLEMS FOR THE INDUSTRY IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
