Also underway is the world''s first privately funded project to install perovskite solar cells capable of generating over 1 megawatt on the walls of a high-rise building in the city center. In fiscal 2024, further funds will be allocated to accelerate such projects, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government is poised to provide medium- to long-term support. One day, all the walls of government-related facilities, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building itself, may generate electricity.
"We will pursue the most effective methods and explore all possibilities," explained Shinri Tanaka, director of the hydrogen energy project promotion at the industrial energy policy division at the industrial and energy policy department. "Green hydrogen is absolutely necessary to realize a decarbonized society, and we will do everything in our power to make it happen."
UN Secretary-GeneralAntónioGuterreshaswelcomedJapan''s announcementon Monday that it would reduce carbon emissions to zero,by 2050,aspart oftheglobal effort to slow the worldwide rise intemperatures,andprevent the most damaging effects of human-made climate change.
"The Secretary-General is very encouraged by Japanese Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide''s announcement of Japan''s commitment to get to net zeroemissions by2050, which is a very significant positive development, and hereby expresses his appreciation for Prime Minister Suga''s leadership," said the statementreleased by UN SpokespersonStéphaneDujarric.
Japan''s announcement comes two weeks aftera call by Mr. Guterres forUNMemberStatesto commit to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050and to submit more ambitiousNationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) – in which each country spells out what it will do to reduce nationalemissions,andadapt to the impacts of climate change.
The statement said Mr. Guterres now looked forward to Japan, the world''sthirdlargest economy, announcing concrete policy measures, along with an ambitiously revised NDC,in timefor the 26th Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP26),dueto be held in Glasgow in November 2021.
"The Secretary-General has no doubt that Japan has all the necessary technological, financial and engineering tools to get to net zero emissions by 2050. He is confident that Japan will also assist developing countries to reach that same objective, including through technological assistance and its public and private financing for renewable energy",the statement said.
Japan''s pledge comes a month after China''sPresident Xi Jinping told the UNGeneral Assemblythat China aimed to have carbon emissions peak before 2030 and to reach carbon neutrality by 2060.
President Xi promised to revise China''s NDCs accordingly and called on all countries to meet their commitments under the 2015Paris Agreement,which sought to keep a global temperature rise this century well belowtwodegreesCelsius above pre-industrial levels,and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
The United States has not made a similar commitment, and aftersignalling in 2017that it would withdrawfrom the Paris Agreement, itcould formally leave the pact as soon as the day after next week''s presidential election.
"All indications" suggest that the extreme temperature reading of 54.4 degrees Celsius recorded in California''s Death Valley on Sunday, is legitimate, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Tuesday.
