Curious to know how they came up with these numbers, 30-40% fossil fuels, 40-50% renewables, 20% nuclear by 2040 🇯🇵
Details to be revealed next week as per Mainichi newspaper.

Japan eyes fossil fuels for up to 40% of its power mix in 2040 🇯🇵🏭
⚠️ That 2040 target is basically the same as the 2030 goal, which aims for fossil fuels to be 41%
☀️ Eyes up to 50% renewables
👉 Japan's government wants to set realistic targets, especially as its currently dependent on coal and LNG

Japan's proposed NDC target was put in question as it's not aligned with the 1.5C pathway. But, how it's decided was criticised by one of the committee members. The meeting kept on without discussing the matter. The whole conversation was broadcasted on youtube. www.youtube.com/live/TY5i4Hk...
