Japan''s Pivot to Resilience: How Two Microgrids Fared After the
Abstract: Japan was an early leader in microgrid research, with the four demonstrations funded by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) between 2003 and 2008 being particularly influential. In addition, there have been several notable private sector projects, as well as some remote island, dc power, and
The Resilience Programme: Changing Japan''s grid

6 FAQs about [What s a microgrid Japan]
How will microgrids impact Japan's Energy Future?
As microgrids appear across the country, they will play an increasingly important role alongside the grid system to deliver clean and reliable power. Japan is currently aiming for 22%-24% of its energy to be produced by renewable sources by 2030, which will include 64GW of solar power.
When did microgrids start in Japan?
The first microgrids in Japan were New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization-financed projects initiated in Aichi, Kyoto and Hachinohe in 2003. A variety of energy sources were tested, in particular gas engines, and their success was demonstrated in the years that followed.
Does Japan need a microgrid?
The 9.0 magnitude earthquake, which hit off the coast of Sanriku, caused vast amounts of damage to Japan’s energy infrastructure, increasing the need for the project roll-out. “It has been accelerated due to the 2011 Great East Japan disaster, and about JPY45bn of funding has been granted” for further development of microgrids, says Kashiwagi.
Why are microgrid systems becoming more popular in Japan?
The success of projects such as Higashi Matsushima eco city has increased the popularity of microgrid systems in Japan. In August 2017, the Cabinet Office announced it would be increasing National Resilience Programme funding by 24%, as of April 2018.
What are microgrids & how do they work?
Microgrids consist of interconnected distributed energy resources, grouped into single, controllable entities. They can act both as part of the wider grid system or separately, and so are particularly useful during grid outages.
Can a microgrid power a power outage?
It is the first time in the U.S. and Japan that a microgrid has been operated on a commercial distribution network with storage batteries as the main power source, bracing for a power outage* 6.
