Now that we''ve covered the benefits of battery storage and Japan''s growing interest, let''s dive into the Japanese government''s detailed policies on this promising technology.
Japan is stepping up efforts to develop its battery recycling technology and secure stable supplies of battery materials as demand for storage batteries is expected to continue rising. Storage battery demand is expected to increase because of greater efforts to decarbonise, especially in the country's high-emitting automobile and power sectors.
Japan will develop the technology of recycling lithium-ion batteries, which must be cost-competitive. In the quality of recyclable battery materials, 70% of lithium, 95% of nickel and 95% of cobalt can be used, thus contributing to reducing the risk of rapidly increasing battery resources and improving sustainable development. Conclusion
This development holds potential to extend the life of batteries, and as a result can help to partly insulate Japan from disruptions in international supply chains. Plus, with the cost of recycling and battery disposal high, there’s likely to be no shortage of those willing to hand over aging batteries.
The Japanese government hopes to obtain more overseas resources and materials for manufacturing batteries through direct investment, thus reducing the prices of batteries. Chinese and South Korean companies have accelerated the pace of mining battery metals, and Japan will follow suit.
There has been a little progress in battery recycling in Japan largely because of the high costs associated with the process. There are almost no battery metals that can be supplied through the recycling process for now, the country's trade and industry ministry Meti said.
Capture Next-Generation Markets: Japan is targeting the next-generation battery market, including solid-state batteries, with full-scale implementation expected around 2030. This involves promoting joint R&D initiatives with Japanese companies.
