Electric propulsion activities in Japan from both project and research oriented view points are reviewed. The flight opportunities are Space Flyer Unit Mission 1 for an MPD thruster system and Engineering Test Satellite 6 for an ion engine system. The systems in these missions look forward to near future applications. As for far future applications such as lunar ferry, Mars lander, and deep space explorer, various types of electric propulsion could be candidates. It is essential in designing electric propulsion systems for these missions to take into account the feasible types of power and propellant resources. In other words, the electric propulsion system should be compatible with the future space infrastructures. From this view point the various types of electric propulsion, which may look diversified, are encouraged to be studied as potential options in Japanese research activities.
