Japan Feed In Tariff - Feed-in Tariffs

According Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry the initial rate paid to owners of systems will be around 50 yen per surplus kilowatt hour produced. This equates to just over 0,40€ based on current exchange rates.

This rate was calculated with the idea in mind to allow customers and investors to earn a return on investment in under 15 years, as well as to keep the increase of cost to utility customers at a reasonable rate (under 1,50€ per month). The Japanese market was unseated as the leader in the 90s by Germany, and has continued to lag since then. However, when such weak policies are the "new solution" to a lagging market, it is no wonder they fell behind to begin with. It seems like a joke, but sadly it is serious as a pie in the face.
