In the fiscal year 2022, the electricity volume generated from petroleum in Japan amounted to approximately 82.5 terawatt hours. Figures peaked in fiscal year 2013, reaching over 156 terawatt hours, but decreased continuously in the following fiscal years.
After the nuclear disaster in 2011, nuclear energy was replaced by fossil fuels. To be more independent of fossil fuel imports and reduce greenhouse gas emissions and electric power costs, Japan currently aims to replace fossil fuels with nuclear and renewable energy sources.
