Mg Soleil project

Pro. Kohama conceives a "Mg Soleil project" and is promoting the project. He has a conclusion that the primary energy available on the earth is the solar energy. He investigated the entire energy available on the earth, including fossil fuels, nuclear, and renewable energy and others, and calculatively reached the conclusion that the solar energy is over 60% of the earth's available energy. To gather the solar energy the desert is the best place. The reason is that the solar energy density is much higher, three times, than in Japan#2A. Magnesium is an almost limitless resource.Solar furnaces are placed on the desert, gathered magnesium compound is refined to produce magnesium metal, and it is transported as metal masses to consumption areas. In the consumption area, the magnesium metal is used as structural materials and converted into electrical energy. To the end, he considers that it is essential to develop Mg refining technology and Mg fuel-cell technology. AeroTrain uses specially designed flame retardant magnesium for its body. This is an example of the application of Mg to the structural material.
