1. Start of inter-technology competition for decarbonizationEfforts to create a decarbonized energy system by combining technologies for renewable energy, electricity storage, digital control, etc.
2. Geopolitical risks increased by technology changesEnergy structure remaining subject to geopolitical risks; Geopolitical risks coming to the surface; Dependence on China for solar panels
3. Intensified competition between nations and firmsSetting of ambitious visions by the national government; Individual firms' activities to pursue new technologies; Responses of financial and capital markets
Structure of the 5th Strategic Energy PlanChapter 1 Structural Issues, Changes in Circumstances, and Policy Timeframe
● Efforts to achieve an optimal energy mix by 2030 only half done(i) Energy efficiencyEstimated to achieve energy reduction of around 50 million kl in FY2030The amount of reduction as of FY2016 around 8.8 million kl
(ii) Zero-emission power source ratioEstimated to be around 44% in FY2030The ratio as of FY2016 being 16% (renewable energy: 15%; nuclear power: 2%)
(iii) Energy-derived CO2 emissionsEstimated to be around 0.93 billion tons in FY2030The emissions as of FY2016 around 1.13 billion tons
(iv) Electricity costEstimated to be 9.2 trillion to 9.5 trillion yen in FY2030The cost as of FY2016 around 6.2 trillion yen
(v) Energy self-sufficiency rateEstimated to be 24% in FY2030The rate as of FY2016 around 8%
Section 3 Achievement of an optimal energy mix by 2030 and its relation with the 2050 scenario
1. Vulnerability due to high dependency on overseas energy resourcesWorsening of the situation due to suspension of nuclear power plants; Japan's energy self-sufficiency rate for FY2016 remaining around 8%
2. Mid- to long-term changes in the energy demand structure (population decline, etc.)Demand decrease due to population decline; Possible changes in energy demand structure due to digitalization, such as the dissemination of AI, IoT and VPP
3. Instability of resource prices (increased energy demand in emerging countries, etc.)Changes in demand trends (China, etc.) and in supply structure (shale revolution) → Oil price in 2040 estimated to be 60 to 140 dollars (IEA)
4. Increasing global greenhouse gas emissions32 billion tons in 2016 →Approx. 36 billion tons in 2040 (IEA's New Policy Scenario); Momentum caused by the Paris Agreement and SDGs

Thermal Waste Heat Utilization for Achieving Super Smart Community
Significance of Smart Communities in Japan “As Smart Community is introduced on a larger scale, a more efficient energy supply will be pursued
through demand response etc. In addition, by supplying various energy sources according to the demand, it will be possible to realize significant energy-saving at ordinary times and to ensure the energy supply in an emergency within the entire community, while at the same time Smart Community is expected to support community infrastructure and to have an effect of enhancing the business continuity of companies etc.”(“Fourth Strategic Energy Plan”(Cabinet Decision on April 11, 2014))
More efficient supply of energyDemand and supply can be adjusted by urging electricity-saving etc. at peak hours through demand response etc. without generating more electricity by thermal power plants.
Energy-saving at ordinary timesOptimal operation of energy generating, energy storage and energy-saving equipment etc. according to the situation of demand and supply without impairing comfort.
Ensuring energy supply in an emergency
Energy supply can be achieved within the community by distributed energy system such as renewable energy and cogeneration system etc. in time of disaster.
Response to insufficient adjusting capability
It is possible to mitigate insufficient frequency adjusting capability caused by a sudden output fluctuation, through controlling energy generating/ storage/ saving equipment etc. according to the demand-supply situation.
Response to insufficient capacityIt is possible to mitigate the rise in voltage and suppress reverse power flow by generating demand during light load period utilizing surplus power on the principle of local production for local consumption through controlling energy generating/storage/ saving equipment etc. according to the demand-supply situation.
