However, with a commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, Tokyo is again looking to nuclear and renewable energy sources to limit its dependence on polluting energy sources. Currently, with one of the most polluting energy mixes among G7 nations, Japan aims for nuclear power to represent 20 to 22% of its electricity by 2030, compared to less than 10% today."
