The annual share of solar power generation in 2024 was 11.4%, a slight increase from 11.2% the previous year. The share of Variable Renewable Energy (VRE), which includes solar and wind, reached 12.6%.
In May 2021, the Japanese Trade Ministry said that Japan may require up to 370 GW of solar capacity by 2050 to reach the goal of cutting carbon emissions to zero.
Japan boosts solar power toward 2050 decarbonization, cutting fossil reliance but facing grid, demand, and geopolitical challenges.
Japan regained its lead over Germany subsequently, but was overtaken in recent years by China and the United States, where solar-power capacity has been increasing rapidly.

The Japanese government is seeking to expand solar power by enacting subsidies and a feed-in tariff (FIT). In December 2008, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry announced a goal of 70% of new homes having solar power installed, and would be spending $145 million in the first quarter of 2009 to encourage home solar power. The government enacted a feed-in tariff in November 2009 that requires utilities to purchase excess solar power sent to the grid by homes
