Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan said the government will focus more on the development of renewable energy, like solar and wind power.
“Japan needs to review its energy policy while seeking safer ways to secure nuclear power,” Kan told a gathering of reporters on Tuesday.
The Japanese government will promote renewable energy and create a more energy-efficient society.
The country goal is to have renewable power account for 20 percent of the country’s total electricity output by 2030.
