About this page

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.
