            Application No.  08/808,639                                               

                                        APPENDIX                                      

                 2. An electric energy converting/storing method,                     
                 comprising the steps of:                                             
                 producing an ozonized gas by using electric energy during            
            a time period in which electric power consumption is low;                 
                 storing ozone contained in said ozonized gas; and                    
                 taking out said stored ozone as an ozone containing gas              
            for utilization thereof during a time period in which the                 
            electric power consumption is high,                                       
                 wherein said ozonized gas is compressed for storage                  
            thereof in said ozone storing step,                                       
            and                                                                       
                 wherein ozone concentration of said ozonized gas upon                
            storage thereof in the compressed state is set in a range of              
            7-15% by weight.                                                          
                 26. An electric energy converting/storing method,                    
            comprising the steps of:                                                  
                 producing an ozonized gas by using electric energy during            
            a time period in which electric power consumption is low;                 
                 storing ozone contained in said ozonized gas; and                    
                 discharging said stored ozone as an ozone containing gas             
            for utilization thereof during a time period in which the                 
            electric power consumption is high,                                       
                 wherein ozone contained in said ozonized gas is adsorbed             
            by an adsorbent in a plurality of ozone adsorption/desorption             
            towers for storage thereof, said ozone adsorption/desorption              
            towers being installed in parallel with one another, wherein a            
            temperature of said adsorbent is controlled when said ozonized            
                                            9
