By Bloomberg News
Dec. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Toshiba Corp. and Toshiba Solutions
Corp. were chosen to conduct a feasibility study for an energy-
conservation demonstration project in Lyon, France by the end of
March 2011.
The project includes setting up a remote monitoring system
for photovoltaic systems, charging infrastructure for electric
vehicles and systems to help manage energy use in buildings in
Lyon, Toshiba Corp. said in a statement yesterday. The company
didn't say how much would be invested in the project.
Japan's state-owned New Energy and Industrial Technology
Development Organization, which is responsible for the Lyon
program, will also initiate a similar project in Spain in 2011,
the organization said Dec. 24.
