Before
This document explores the decarbonization strategy for Japan's electricity sector. Japan faces significant energy security risks, relying almost entirely on imported fuels. The study demonstrates that it is feasible to increase the share of clean energy to 90% by 2035, which would reduce electricity costs by 6%, eliminate dependency on fossil fuel imports, and dramatically cut CO2 emissions. It concludes that strong policies are essential to accelerate the adoption of clean energy and achieve these goals.

This document examines strategies for decarbonizing Japan's electricity sector. Japan faces significant energy security risks, with only 24% of its electricity generated from clean energy sources. The study demonstrates that it is feasible to increase the share of clean energy to 90% by 2035, which would reduce electricity costs by 6% and eliminate dependence on fossil fuel imports. It concludes that reliable power supply can be maintained while achieving a 92% reduction in CO2 emissions. To realize these benefits, strong policies aligned with these targets are essential.
