Investing in Japanese Renewable Energy
What a dramatic turnaround! Japan will abandon plans to boost its dependence on nuclear power, following the devastating earthquake and tsunami of March 2011.

Instead, the Prime Minister has announced that by around 2021 Japan should be receiving 20 per cent of its power needs from renewable sources, more than double the present figure (which includes hydroelectric power).

Before the earthquake the government had been planning for a steady increase in the number of nuclear plants in Japan, with nuclear energy expected to provide half the country’s power needs by 2030, up from 25 to 30 per cent at present.

Already Japan is a technological leader in solar energy, and third in the world in installed capacity. Solar will certainly be the big winner in what is expected to be a rush towards renewable energy.

Japan also has impressive geothermal and wind resources. At present it is eighth in the world in installed geothermal capacity, and twelfth in wind.

For investors looking to the long-term trends that will shape our world in the coming decade, this powerful Japanese move into renewable energy stands out as an important theme.

In a concise ebook, veteran financial author and Asia expert Martin Peter Roth examines the issues and presents the eight key stocks that stand to gain. (Approx. 3,900 words, 15 pages.)
