Japan's New Energy Policy Aims for 50% Renewables by 2040, 20% Nuclear Power as Electricity Demand Grows
Dec 26, 2024, 03:10 AM
Japan's government is advancing a new energy policy aimed at maximizing the use of nuclear power while significantly increasing renewable energy sources. A government-commissioned panel of experts has largely supported this plan, which seeks to bolster renewables to meet up to half of the country's electricity needs by 2040. The revised energy policy includes a target for nuclear power to contribute approximately 20% of the electricity mix by 2040, reflecting the government's commitment to addressing growing electricity demand while transitioning to cleaner energy sources.
