| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, I analysed the impacts of electricity market reform and carbon tax on the electricity demand and supply and on CO2 emissions in Japan. In the first year of this research, I analysed how the electric power system reform or carbon taxes affect to electricity supply and demand and CO2 emissions in 2030. In the second year of this research, renewable energy potentials and grid availabilities within 10 electricity power grid regions in Japan were examined to assess how Japan can achieve the domestic emission reduction target and further ambitious reduction target towards 2030. I also examined necessity of the reform of the electric power system including facilitating regional electricity trade to maximise the renewable electricity generation and improve carbon intensity of electricity generation.
