Given the fundamental direction of Japan’s energy landscape, energy storage technology is set to play an integral part in Japan’s energy future due to energy storage technology’s role in both smart grid technology and in renewable energy’s integration into Japan’s energy landscape.
Japan’s energy storage landscape is widely distributed across the whole of Japan, geographically-speaking. Furthermore, Japan’s energy-storage landscape is characterized by its connection with Japan’s smart-grid and smart city landscape. a. Interactive Map of Japan’s Energy Storage Landscape
Other small-scale uses, such as data center backup energy storage are projected by NEDO to become commercially widespread in Japan before 2020. Overall, large and centralized storage technologies have been mature for a longer period of time. In Japan and in the EU, research and development efforts are heavily focusing on batteries.
Figure 16, is a snapshot of the interactive map of Japan’s large-scale energy storage geography, as well as its smart-grid and smart-city landscape. Overall, the map demonstrates that Japan has a visible overlap between its smart-grid infrastructure and the country’s energy storage sites.
The interactive map includes GPS coordinates for Japan’s primary energy storage sites, as well as capacity, launch year, primary operator/owner, and a brief description of the site. One immediately apparent trend demonstrated by the interactive map is the distribution of Japan’s energy storage sites.
Economic incentives for energy storage on the Japanese market are established by Japan’s Feed-in-tariff scheme.129 Furthermore, 2012-2013 saw the launch of numerous, high-budget energy storage subsidies on the Japanese market, as outlined in previous chapters of this research. iv.
