There has been a great response to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's announcement in 2022 of “ the mandatory installation of photovoltaic power generation for new buildings ” and the term “the mandatory installation” seems to have made a particularly strong impression.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Bureau of Environment's solar power portal site provides detailed explanations of not only the “subject of the mandatory installation,” but also the implementation date of the program (April 2025), “benefits of installing PV system,” “actual costs,” and other details.
The push is reinforced by Tokyo's 2025 regulation requiring solar panels on new homes, and the launch of virtual power plant (VPP) programs—slated to begin in fiscal 2026—that will let households sell surplus energy to the grid.
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.
