Innovation by Japan’s companies to advance clean energy technology can speed up the country’s efforts to curb emissions, according to former prime minister Yoshihide Suga.
Suga, who set Japan’s 2050 climate goal in 2020, said the No. 3 economy can benefit as developments like bendable solar panels and offshore wind become mainstream, helping the nation overcome space limitations which currently restrict deployments of conventional renewables.
