Japan's government is targeting carbon neutrality by 2050, committing $20 billion to green technology and aiming for a renewable energy share of 22-24% by 2030. Industry leaders call for reforms in land use and the national grid to facilitate this transition, highlighting the need for at least 40% renewable energy by 2030. The government also plans to increase offshore wind capacity to 45 gigawatts by 2040, addressing existing challenges related to grid access and environmental assessments.
