Electricity production from hydropower by industry-owned facilities in Japan from fiscal year 2010 to 2019
(in terawatt hours)
fiscal years 2010 to 2019; the fiscal year in Japan starts on April 1st and ends on March 31st of the following year
Supplementary notes
Figures for industry-owned generation represent the total amount generated by power plants with a generating capacity of 1,000 kilowatt or above.
Due to the launch of the licensing system in fiscal 2016, certain operators’ electric power generation that had been counted as for self-consumption has instead been counted as for electricity utilities since fiscal 2016.
