Japan Sets Target of 20 Percent for Renewable Energy
Japanese prime minister Naoto Kan said Japan will increase renewable energy production to meet at least 20 percent of Japan’s energy needs by sometime in the 2020s.

Speaking on Wednesday at the commemoration ceremony of the 50th anniversary of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Kan said Japan is rethinking its basic energy plan.

In the wake of the Fukushima nuclear crisis, Japan will focus more on developing technology for renewables than it was previously in national energy plans
