The Japanese government plans to export its expertise in renewable energy technologies such as low-emitting geothermal, solar and hydrogen power to emerging economies, a government source said Wednesday.
The move reflects an expected rise in demand for energy technology that emits limited amounts of carbon dioxide in India, China and Southeast Asia after the Paris climate accord came into force, calling on each country to set its own targets for mitigating clime change.
The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Foreign Ministry are expected to make arrangements in the near future to develop specific plans, according to the source.
