About this page

This document outlines the potential for Japan to achieve a 90% clean electricity share by 2035. It highlights that declining costs of renewable energy technologies, particularly solar, offshore wind, and batteries, can lead to a 6% reduction in electricity costs and nearly eliminate dependence on imported LNG and coal. The study also asserts that Japan's power grid can remain reliable without the need for new gas capacity or coal generation. To capitalize on these significant economic, environmental, and energy security benefits, strong policies are required, including a target for 90% clean electricity by 2035 and corresponding renewable deployment goals.
