international consultancy award

We can take you there!

Since we opened our Japan operation in 2014, we have assisted over 25 international energy companies enter the Japanese market. This includes trading companies, retail, software, hydrogen, renewables, and brokers.
There are many reasons for entering Japan’s energy markets.

  • Think of Japan like the US, EU or AU markets were some 20 + years ago. Opportunities for retail energy, trading, renewables, BESS, DERs and a wide variety of technologies are abundant in Japan’s now deregulated energy market.
  • The regulators opened the entire market for competition, including all 86 million customers who can choose suppliers.
  • Trading liquidity in both physical and futures markets has grown to be viable.
  • The regulatory model is simpler and predictable, unlike many other markets.
  • The government has passed a Net Zero 2050 law that is changing everything.
