            Appeal No.  2001-2650                                                     
            Application No.  08/808,639                                               

            gas is adsorbed and said temperature of said adsorbent is not             
            controlled when said ozone is discharged.                                 
                  27. An electric energy converting/storing method,                   
            comprising the steps of:                                                  
                  producing an ozonized gas by using electric energy;                 
                  storing ozone contained in said ozonized gas; and                   
                 discharging said stored ozone as an ozone containing gas             
            for utilization thereof,                                                  
                  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            
            gas is adsorbed and said temperature of said adsorbent is not             
            controlled when said ozone is discharged.                                 
                  30. 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, wherein          
            said stored ozone contained in said ozonized gas is absorbed by           
            an adsorbent; 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 a pressure around said adsorbent is above               
            atmospheric pressure when said ozonized gas is adsorbed and               
            said pressure around said adsorbent is below atmospheric                  
                                           10
