【Basic Knowledge】What is the "FIP system" aimed at promoting the mainstay of renewable energy sources?

A significant step towards the early realization of renewable energy as a primary power source! Introducing the differences from the "FIT system" and more.

Many people may already know, but in 2012, the "FIT system" was established as a measure to promote the introduction of renewable energy. The FIT system (Feed-in Tariff system for renewable energy) is a system that mandates electricity providers to purchase electricity generated from renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass at a price set by the government for a certain period. This system has rapidly accelerated the introduction of renewable energy, but as a new measure towards Japan's goal of "carbon neutrality by 2050," the "FIP system," which is market-linked, was introduced in April 2022 in addition to the "FIT system."
