Japan's offshore wind ambitions stall on costs and environmental concerns

Japan holds vast potential for offshore wind power, but its high expectations for the industry have so far failed to materialise. Rising costs and environmental concerns have slowed development, leaving the sector short of the growth once forecast. Some argue that cutting-edge technology could help resolve part of the problem and get projects back on track.

Why now: Renewed debate over Japan's energy strategy as cost and environmental obstacles hold back offshore wind development.
