The Government of Japan formulates the “Strategic Energy Plan” to show the direction of Japan’s energy policy. It is reviewed at least every 3 years in view of the latest energy situations at home and abroad, and revised if considered necessary. On October 22, the 6th “Strategic Energy Plan” was published.
According to Japan’s 6th Strategic Energy Plan, battery storage will be increased as a distributed source of electricity closer to end users and within microgrids. This new policy calls for an increase in installed solar capacity from 79 gigawatts (GW) in 2022 to 108 GW by 2030.
Japan’s 6th Strategic Energy Plan (released in 2021) and the GX (Green Transformation) Decarbonization Power Supply Bill (released in 2023) target increasing the share of non-fossil fuel generation sources to 59% of the generation mix by 2030 compared with 31% in 2022.
Japan has embarked on formulating its Seventh Strategic Energy Plan, which will set the course of its energy policies. The plan has considerable potential for folding energy policy and circular economy policy into a single package.
Policies to increase its share are to be supported by: The targeted increase in renewable generation is paired with broad encouragement of battery storage. According to Japan’s 6th Strategic Energy Plan, battery storage will be increased as a distributed source of electricity closer to end users and within microgrids.
Japan’s government called the package of energy policies and their targets “ ambitious.” Energy security considerations may affect the progress and pace of decarbonization in the electric power sector.
