Japan has demonstrated global leadership through its GX Transformation Plan, a comprehensive strategy addressing climate challenges and promoting sustainable growth. However, as geopolitical tensions rise and the need for domestic regional revitalization grows, it is crucial for Japan’s leadership to outline the next steps to advance this mission.
In this context, Climate Bonds has identified three key policy opportunities for Japan in the coming year. First, enhancing national energy security by leveraging renewable energy to drive regional revitalization. Second, asserting global leadership by providing innovative solutions for the energy transition. Finally, positioning Tokyo as Asia’s leading hub for transition finance to attract investments and accelerate the green transformation.
