I. - 2. Transition of Energy Consumption in the Industrial Sector
Energy Consumption Trend under Nippon Keidanren's Voluntary Action Plan on the Environment
  • Nippon Keidanren has drawn up a voluntary environmental action plan with the common goal of "reducing CO2 emissions from the industrial and energy conversion sectors to at least the FY1990 level by FY2010."
  • Implementation of the plan has reduced CO2 emissions against the FY1990 level and energy consumption has leveled off.

Transition of Energy Consumption
in the Commercial/Residential Sector
  • Energy consumption in the commercial/residential sector surged after the oil crisis and is still growing.
  • Japan's per-capita energy consumption in the commercial/residential sector is relatively low compared to other major countries, but the difference is narrowing.

    I-3. Transition of Energy Consumption in the Commercial/Residential Sector
    Transition of the Energy Consumption Rate in the Residential Sector
    • Energy consumption for heating and hot water supply accounted for approximately 60% of total household energy consumption in the residential sector in 2004.
    • Between FY 1973 and 2004, the percentage of power and others increased because energy consumption for lighting and home appliances increased(26.8%→33.4%).
