Japan Abandons Nuclear Energy for Solar

Abandon your high-cost energy system in your home or business and contact the masters of solar power San Diego, Soliare Energy Systems at 1-800-847-7751.

As a reaction to the tsunami and earthquake that shook Fukushima and the rest of Japan in March of this year, the prime minister has proposed a policy that requires all new buildings to have solar panels by the year 2030. The tsunami destroyed a nuclear power plant that caused the world’s worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl in April of 1986. This was the wakeup call Japan needed to turn their focus on solar and other renewable energy.

Prime Minister Naoto Kan announced that they would be abandoning the plan to build 14 new nuclear reactors and now plans to generate 20 percent of all the country’s energy from renewable resources. Japan will turn to solar energy as an alternative to burning fossil fuels, especially coal. “We will do everything we can to make renewable energy our base form of power, overcoming hurdles of technology and cost,” stated the Prime Minster. The proposal for the solar panel building requirement will be discussed tomorrow at the G8 Summit in Deauville, France. Japanese internet and mobile provider, Softbank Corp., has joined the zeitgeist and has plans contribute to the movement by financing the building of solar power facilities in 19 of the 47 prefectures.
