In 2022, the generation capacity of offshore wind energy in Japan amounted to 61 megawatt. Figures peaked in 2019 at around 68 megawatt. Wind energy only produces a small amount of energy supply in Japan.
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and be less dependent on fossil fuel imports, the Japanese government currently aims to increase the use of renewable energy sources.
