Promotion of energy source diversificationOil dependence in primary energy mix to be lowered at 40% in 2030Oil dependence in transportation fuel to be lowered at 80% in 2030

Promotion of nuclear power developmentIts share in power mix to be 30-40% in 2030

Promotion of energy conservationEnergy intensity to be improved by 30% by 2030

Promotion of upstream investmentOverseas upstream equity oil imports to be increased to account for 40% of total oil imports

Ken Koyama

Energy security is critical for Japan

Definition of “Energy Security”:To secure sufficient energy supply at reasonable prices for the achievement, pursuit and maintenance of maximizing economic/social welfares and sustainable development of national economy and citizens

Japan (and every country) requires to achieve energy security as an essential/critical policy goal

IEEJ: August 2006

Ken Koyama

Perceived Risks for Energy Security

Contingent risksPolitical and military risks in main energy supply areaAccidents in energy supply chainConsumers’ panic behavior

Structural risksSupplier’s embargo with political objectivesMarket power of major suppliersSupply/demand squeeze due to insufficient investment, rapid growth of demand, etc.Resource constraints and chronic energy shortageSide effects of market liberalization and environmental restrictions

Japan has developed energy policy to enhance energy security in the past 30 years

Energy security “re-visited” in Japan

Japan’s policy initiatives after 1970s resulted in substantial achievement in diversification, stockpile, etc.

But high oil dependence, import dependence, Middle East dependence remain unchangedEmerging risks/threats to global energy security

Energy security policy is still a very important agenda for Japan

IEEJ: August 2006

Ken Koyama

Objective of the Strategy

Establishment of energy security measures that our people can trust and rely on

Establishment of the foundation for sustainable development through a comprehensive solution ofapproach for energy

issues and environmental issues all together

Commitment to assist Asian and world nations in addressing energy problems

Important points in implementing the Strategy

Medium- or long-term visions toward the specific direction, with specific numerical targets as a milestoneBreakthrough by the world’s most advanced technologies Strategic collaboration between the government and private organizations and government-wide efforts to strengthen the scheme of carrying out the Strategy

Ken Koyama

Establishment of numerical target

Target of energy conservation→ At least another 30% improvement of efficiency will be attained

by 2030. Target of reducing oil dependence→ The ratio will be reduced to be lower than 40% by 2030.

Target of reducing oil dependence in the transport sector→ The percentage will be reduced to around 80% by 2030.

Target on nuclear power generation→ The ratio of nuclear power to all power production will be

maintained or increased at the level of 30 to 40% or more up to 2030 or later.

Target of overseas natural resources development → The ratio of Japanese developed oil in total oil import will be

increased to around 40% by 2030.(Source) METI “New National Energy Strategy”

Establish an energy technology strategy as a roadmap for long-term vision Strengthen R&D for energy technology

In order to promote cooperation between the public and private sectors, technical challenges to be solved by 2030 will be summarized in the energy technology strategy, and this approach should take into account the technologies needed from a strategic viewpoint by envisaging the situation in 2100 or 2050. And looking back from then.
