Primary Energy Intensity per GDP

(2001 by IEA statistics) Currency rate to US$ as of 1995

Trend in Final Energy Consumption by Sector (2002)

< shown by index based on '73 >

Amend the Energy Conservation Law(enforced in April, 2003), and enforce the regulation of large-scale buildings in conform with Class 1 designated factories.
Enforce the energy conservation promoting activities of the residential and commercial sector.

Why did the manufacturing industry of Japan succeed
in the energy conservation after the Oil Crisis?

Regulation measures by Government(Energy Conservation Law)
Support and subsidy system by Government(finance, tax, subsidiary aid)
Cost reduction (enforcement of international competitiveness) and Self-help efforts by companies --- investment, ZD,QC activity, Kaizen by Sho-shudan, TQM, etc.

Mutual effect, Synergy effect

Japan became the first class in energy conservation technology with the rapid progress of energy conservation.

Outline of the Energy Conservation Law
(Law concerning rational use of energy)
(1979 enforced, 1999, 2002 amended and reinforced)

<basic objective>
Enhancing rational use of energy and energy efficiency
in order to achieve 3E's harmonization.

Regulations regarding factories and business premises
Regulations regarding buildings (newly built, extended)
Energy efficiency standard for appliances and automobiles (Top runner program)
Others (supportive measures/finance, tax, R&D, publicity, etc.)

<ECCJ's Status> ECCJ should be the core organization responsible for promotion of
energy conservation. (supplemented with the resolution at the Diet)
