Year-over-year, Electricity, hho, JP prices fell by 0.7%. Current Electricity prices in Japan are detailed in the Energy Prices & Markets in Japan Report, which provides comprehensive pricing and market insights for electricity along with other essential energy commodities in Japan.
The chart illustrates Electricity prices in Japan, measured in JPY/kWh, as follows: Electricity Price, Japan (Feb 25). The price for Electricity, ind, JP was approximately 17.9 JPY per kWh, indicating an increase of 0.3% relative to the previous month.
As policy, technology, and decarbonization goals converge, Japan is positioning energy storage as a critical link between its climate targets and energy reliability. Japan’s energy storage policy is anchored by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), which outlined its ambitions in the 6th Strategic Energy Plan, adopted in 2021.
As of March, Japan had 0.23 GW of grid-connected BESS, according to METI. By comparison, China has 75 GW and the U.S. has installed nearly 26 GW of battery storage capacity, according to the Energy Institute.
Since December 2023, companies have announced investments of at least $2.6 billion in Japanese battery storage projects, according to calculations by Reuters. That includes $677 million in spending by Japanese real estate firm Hulic (3003.T) announced in January and $1.3 billion by trading house Sumitomo (8053.T) last year.
The price for Electricity, ind, JP was approximately 17.9 JPY per kWh, indicating an increase of 0.3% relative to the previous month. On a year-on-year basis, the Electricity, ind, JP price has seen a decline of 16.2%.The price for Electricity, hho, JP was roughly 40.5 JPY per kWh, which reflects a decrease of 0.1% from the previous month.
