NTT decided to strengthen disaster countermeasures such as typhoons. The 400 mobile power vehicles owned by the group are centrally managed and operated efficiently, and the system is ready for quick recovery.

This was revealed by NTT President Jun Sawada at an interim financial results press conference.

In Typhoon No. 15 in September, the mobile phone base station lost power and communication problems occurred mainly in Chiba Prefecture. NTT DOCOMO took 11 days to recover, and Typhoon No. 19 had a wide range of communications and calls. A failure that cannot be performed has occurred.

NTT did recovery work by putting out a mobile power supply vehicle, etc., but it could not be flexibly dealt with, for example, by adapting a power supply vehicle of a group company that was relatively lightly damaged to another company with severe damage. is.

For this reason, NTT has decided to centrally manage 400 mobile power vehicles owned by the four group companies in order to improve operational efficiency.

As a result, it is said that it will be possible to respond more quickly, for example, by supplying a power car from NTT West to a disaster in the Kanto region.

In addition to switching from commercial vehicles to electric vehicles and using batteries in the event of a power outage at the base station, the company plans to promote efforts to allocate retired employees to the personnel involved in restoration work.
