Objective

Increasing geopolitical risks in the Middle East and the situation in Russia and Ukraine have increased uncertainty in the international energy situation. As a result, energy security has re-emerged as the most important issue in the energy policies of countries that have largely focused on global warming prevention since the Paris Agreement. On the other hand, the gap between the picture of a possible energy transition, calculated backward from the 1.5°C stabilisation and 2050 carbon neutrality targets, and reality is widening. An ambitious energy transition could lead to higher energy costs and make political, economic and social sustainability more difficult. In addition, the impact of the European Parliamentary elections, the US presidential election and other elections on the international environment regarding energy and global warming is also uncertain. In the context of the major trend towards decarbonisation, countries are pursuing 'diverse pathways' in a way that minimises the costs associated with the energy transition in accordance with their national circumstances, and discussions have started in Japan on the formulation of the Seventh Basic Energy Plan. This symposium aims to provide an overview of the international situation regarding energy security and decarbonisation, with a focus on the 1.5°C target, and to provide suggestions for the direction of Japan's ideal energy strategy.
