The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) developed this document to set a direction for transition toward achieving carbon neutrality in 2050 for GHG-intensive industries.

The 5th Strategic Energy Plan details the government's vision to 2030 and 2050 in order to enforce the Basic Act on Energy Policy. The Plan notably defines an increased role of renewables in the medium and long terms, and determines the nuclear policy post Fukushima. The Outlook sets out the optimal combination of energy sources for 2030.

This document was developed by METI. It defines how the Green Innovation Fund can be used to achieve a power generation cost of 8 to 9 yen/kWh with fixed-bottom wind turbines and technology to commercialise floating offshore wind turbines at internationally competitive cost levels. The plan supports the development of technology for wind turbines, floating structures, etc. and support demonstrations based on integrated designs for equipment such as wind turbines, floating structures and cables, that will be suitable for the meteorological and marine conditions in Asia.

<div>This Law establishes basic principles relating to the establishment of a food system that is harmonised with the environment. It aims to contribute to the sustainable development of agriculture, forestry, fisheries and the food industry, whilst ensuring a stable food supply for citizens.&nbsp;<br><br>Some relevant provisions include:&nbsp;</div><ul><li>Article 19: Establishes a certification system to facilitate adoption of environmentally friendly activities by farmers, foresters and fishermen</li><li>Article 10: Promotion of soil fertility through the effective use of livestock manure and reducing the use of chemically synthesised fertilisers; and introducing production methods using technology to control greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture, forestry and fisheries.</li><li>Article 31: Establishing a system to allow organic farmers and neighbouring conventional farmers to form agreements and define cultivation management responsibilities (e.g. pest control)&nbsp;</li></ul>

This Act sets the legal framework to take measures such as the formulation of basic policies, designating maritime areas as targets of promotion projects, creating a certification system for plans related to the licensed use of such designated maritime areas, etc., for the promotion of the utilisation of specific maritime areas related to the development of power generation facilities while making efforts to harmonise with other measures related to the ocean.

This Act aims at enhancing adaptation efforts in Japan. It enshrines into law the 2015 National Adaptation Plan and sets updated obligations. It charges authorities to take effective measures in various fields based on "reliable scientific information". It further promotes international cooperation and the involvement of private entities in adaptation efforts. Climate change impact assessments will have to be published every five years by the Ministry for the Environment. Municipalities should establish local climate change adaptation plans. The Act will enter into force in December 2018.

This Act provides for 1) regulatory measures for mandatory compliance with energy efficiency standards for large-scale non-residential buildings, and 2) incentive measures such as a labeling system displaying compliance with energy efficiency standards and exception of floor-area ratio regulation for certified building. The incentive measures were implemented on April 1, 2016, and regulatory measures on April 1, 2017. The Act further details the standards and the labelling system for energy efficiency.

Measures Achieving Decarbonization and Resilience with Innovation (MeaDRI) - Summary

Approved

This strategy aims to create jobs, improve livelihoods and encourage balanced diets for the Japanese population. To do so, it aims to create smart food value chains, boost human development, boost research and development, and encourage innovation, notably in rural areas. It also sets specific measures to decarbonise the food sector and make it more resilient.<strong><br></strong><br></div><div>The document also 1) encourages circular economy with increased use of local resources, 2) aims to contribute to the 2050 goal of carbon neutrality via a reduction in the use of chemical pesticides/fertilisers, , and 3) seeks to disseminate energy saving/precision technologies.<br><br>On top of a sectoral carbon neutral target, the strategy sets the following goals by 2050:<br>- 50% reduction in risk-weighted use of chemical pesticides by dissemination of the Integrated Pest Management and newly-developed alternatives<br>- 30% reduction in chemical fertilizer use&nbsp;<br>- Increase in organic farming to 1Mha<br>- At least 30% enhancement in productivity of food manufacturers (by 2030)<br>- Sustainable sourcing for import materials (by2030)<br>- 90% and more superior varieties and F1 plus trees in forestry seedling<br>- 100% of artificial seedling rates in aquaculture of Japanese eel, Pacific bluefin tuna, etc.
