JAPAN’S NATIONAL ENERGY STRATEGY PLAN - OUTLINE
(c) 2013 Eurotechnology Japan KK www.eurotechnology.com Japan’s energy landscape (19th edition) July 23, 201310
This section describes the nuclear energy part of a roadmap which over the next 30-40 years might realize a nuclear free society - unless modifications occur during this time.
1.1 The roadmap aims to follow three principles:
1.strictly limit the operation of nuclear power plants to 40 years age.2.restart those nuclear power plants, where the safety has been assured by the (newly formed) Nuclear Safety Commission3.no new construction or expansion of nuclear power stations
1.1. REALIZING A NUCLEAR FREE SOCIETY “ONE DAY EARLIER THAN POSSIBLE” - THREE PRINCIPLES

1.2.Five policies will be followed:
1.nuclear fuel cycle2.maintenance and strengthening of human resources and technology3.cooperation with the international community4.strengthen location, regional measures5.nuclear industry system and system for compensation of damages

(c) 2013 Eurotechnology Japan KK www.eurotechnology.com Japan’s energy landscape (19th edition) July 23, 201329
Sept. 19, the Cabinet released a "Kakugikettei" (Cabinet Decision) which is 4 and 1/2 lines long, which says: We will carry out our energy and environmental policy based on the "Innovative Energy and Environmental Strategy" as decided by the Energy and Environment Council on Sept 14, however we will hold responsible discussions with concerned self-governing regional bodies of Japan and with concerned international organizations, and we will continuously and flexibly verify and adjust our policy. (Kakugikettei, Cabinet decision of Sept 19, 2012, our unofficial translation from bureaucratic official complex Japanese into simplified English, attempting to keep the same meaning). Note, that this "step back" is not uniquely Japanese.... Sweden decided in the 1980s to go zero-nuclear with a Parliament approved schedule, and Sweden's parliament reversed the earlier zero-nuclear decision, and went back to continue nuclear power in 2010 and renewing or building new nuclear power stations.

30
(c) 2013 Eurotechnology Japan KK www.eurotechnology.com Japan’s energy landscape (19th edition) July 23, 2013
PRIMARY ENERGY SELF-SUFFICIENCY RATIOS
31
Japan has one of the lowest primary energy self-sufficiency ratios globally: •Japan has to import about 82% of primary energy, if nuclear energy is included.•however, at present with two exceptions, all nuclear power stations out of service, so that 96% of Japan’s primary energy needs to be imported.
Countries with self-sufficiency ratios larger than 100% export primary energy including electricity, while countries with self-sufficiency ratios lower than 100% need to import primary energy and electricity

JAPAN’S LNG AND LPG IMPORT - QUANTITY
36
The energy supply from nuclear power, has been mainly replaced by LNG (liquid natural gas).
This figures shows the quantity of imported LNG and LPG gas in metric tons.
The mass of imported gas increased from an average of around 6.5 million tons/month to an average of more than 8 million tons/month after the Fukushima disaster on March 11, 2011, ie an increase of approx. 23%.

JAPAN’S LNG AND LPG PRICES
39
Natural gas prices vary widely between the point of purchase/sale, the timing, and the type of delivery (pipeline, liquid natural gas via tanker by sea etc).
This figure shows the prices Japan pays on average for LNG and LPG gas delivered to Japan, the data are obtained from the Japanese Ministry of Finance.
The figure shows, that current (May 2013) are higher than at the peak just before the Lehman bankruptcy.

JAPAN’S LNG PRICES
41
Most Japanese LNG prices are traditionally fixed to the price of crude oil. Thus the price for 1 Million BTU of LNG gas for Japan is currently on the order of US$ 17, while for certain types of LNG the US internal price is on the order of US$ 2, ie Japanese power companies pay up to 8 times more for LNG than US power companies.
There is much effort on the Japanese side to reduce the costs of procuring LNG.
Recently Osaka Gas and Chubu Electric Power have entered into longterm procurement contracts where the LNG price is determined according to the “Henry hub” price for LNG. (The “Henry hub” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_hub is a distribution hub on the US natural gas pipeline system, and is used for the pricing of natural gas futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange and on the IntercontinentalExchange ICE).

PHASING OUT NUCLEAR POWER AFTER THE FUKUSHIMA DISASTER
48
Japan’s nuclear power stations are switched off routinely every 13 months for maintenance. After the Fukushima nuclear disaster it became politically very difficult, if not impossible to return reactors into service after completion of the routine maintenance. As a consequence, 13 months after March 11, 2011, all Japanese nuclear reactors were out of service. Only two reactors have been switched on again. This figure only shows nuclear power generated by reactors owned by the 10 regional electricity operators.

RESTARTING JAPAN’S NUCLEAR POWER STATIONS
49
According to the Chairman of Japan’s new Nuclear Regulation Authority (Chairman Shunichi Tanaka in an interview with Yomiuri Shinbun on September 24, 2012), the preparation of new nuclear safety guidelines required by the new nuclear safety law, will take until summer 2013, so that it is extremely unlikely that nuclear power stations will be restarted in addition than the 2 reactors at Oi which have been restarted a few weeks ago.

NUCLEAR DISASTER INVESTIGATIONINDEPENDENT PARLIAMENTARY COMMISSION:
THE FUKUSHIMA NUCLEAR DISASTER WAS CAUSED BY REGULATORY CAPTURE
61
The Fukushima nuclear disaster has been investigated by several commissions, including:•an internal commission within Tokyo Electric Power Corporation (TEPCO), the owner and operator of the Fukushima nuclear power station.
•This commission was not independent of TEPCO, but it can be assumed that this commission needed to follow TEPCO’s interests.•an independent commission incorporated by the Japanese Parliament.
•The Chairman of this commission was Professor Kiyoshi Kurokawa, a highly respected medical doctor, formerly Professor of Tokyo University, then Chairman of the Faculty of Medicine of Tokai, and then President of the Science Council of Japan.•Commissioners:
•Koichi Tanaka, Nobel Prize Winner, Chemist at Shimadzu Corporation•Katsuhiko Ishibashi, Seismologist•Kenzo Oshima, Former Ambassador of Japan to the United Nations•Hisako Sakiyama, Medical Doctor, Former Chief of the National Institute of Radiological Sciences•Masafumi Sakurai, Lawyer, former Chief Prosecutor of the Nagoya High Public Prosecutors Office, and former Inspector General for Legal Compliance, Inspector General’s Office, Defense Ministry•Mitsuhiko Tanaka, Science Journalist•Shuya Nomura, Lawyer, Professor, Chuo Law School, Chuo University•Reiko Hachisuka, Chair, Society of Commerce and Industry, Okuma Town, Fukushima Prefecture•Yoshinori Yokoyama, Social System Designer, Director, University of Tokyo, Executive Management Program
•The primary results of this independent commission was that the Fukushima nuclear accident was caused by Regulatory Capture. A well known phenomenon, which occurs when the industry regulated by this industry’s regulator, gains control (“captures”) of the regulator. •The theory of regulatory capture is due to George Stigler, Nobel Prize winner in Economics. For more on Regulatory Capture see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_capture
(c) 2013 Eurotechnology Japan KK www.eurotechnology.com Japan’s energy landscape (19th edition) July 23, 2013
NEW NUCLEAR SAFETY AUTHORITY
62
The independent Parliamentary Commission determined that the Fukushima nuclear accident was caused by Regulatory Capture, ie by the capture of the previous Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency by the Japanese nuclear industry. The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency was part of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), which was promoting the development of Japan’s nuclear industry.
Therefore it was necessary to establish an independent new regulator for Japan’s nuclear industry.
The new independent nuclear safety regulator is the “Nuclear Regulation Authority” (NRA) and was incorporated on September 19, 2012.
The Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) is part of the Environment Ministry, and its independence is guaranteed under Article 3 of the National Government Organization Law.
Chairman is Shunichi Tanaka, former Vice-Chairman of the Cabinet Office’s Atomic Energy Commission.
According to the Chairman of Japan’s new Nuclear Regulation Authority (Chairman Shunichi Tanaka in an interview with Yomiuri Shinbun on September 24, 2012), the preparation of new nuclear safety guidelines required by the new nuclear safety law, will take until summer 2013, so that it is extremely unlikely that nuclear power stations will be restarted in addition than the 2 reactors at Oi which have been restarted a few weeks ago.
According to NRA Chairman Shunichi Tanaka, the role of NRA is exclusively the creation and execution of new nuclear safety standards, and response guidelines in the event of another disaster.
Chairman Shunichi Tanaka, in an interview on September 24, 2012 with Yomiuri Shinbun stated that NRA will exclusively focus on objective safety screening and:•will NOT consider issues such as future electricity supply and demand•will NOT consider financial difficulties of electricity operators from switching of nuclear reactors•will NOT take account of the “stress tests” imposed by the Government on electricity operators after the Fukushima nuclear disaster, but will assess safety independently•will NOT make efforts to obtain public’s acceptance of restarting nuclear power

NEW ENERGY CONTRIBUTION TO THE POWER MIX
74
Before March 11, 2011, Japan’s regional power monopolies had an unwritten rule to keep “new energy” (ie. renewable energies such as wind, solar, geo-thermal, wave power, bio-mass, but excepting water power) below 1% of the power mix. Water power was excepted, and Japan’s water power contribution is on the order of 10% overall.

SUMMARY:JAPAN’S ELECTRICAL ENERGY LANDSCAPE
211
Japan’s electrical industry has been almost unchanged for many years, until the Fukushima nuclear disaster struck in March 2011. The nuclear energy contribution to Japan’s electrical energy mix was around 30% and increasing this nuclear energy contribution to 50% was official policy. New renewable sources were kept below 1% of the electricity energy mix.
The Fukushima nuclear disaster led to a shut-down of almost all nuclear power stations (except two), and nuclear power has for the time being been replaced by much more expensive fossil sources (mainly gas), and restarting retired aged conventional power stations.
Legislation came in force on July 1, 2012 to promote renewable energy sources via feed-in-tariffs, and Japan’s energy strategy plan is currently in intense political discussions. For the future, strong increases in renewable energy can be expected. The long-term fate of nuclear power has not yet been decided.
