behind in getting it out into the public at large, but it has adopted a feed-in tariff as
it makes up for falling behind.
There has been no growth with nuclear power – a source of energy that. Like
renewables. Does not emit CO 2 . The amount of electricity generated at present is no
more than 15% higher than the figure for 1995. In Chikyū jizoku no gijutsu, I wrote
that owing to worries over safety, nuclear power would be an energy in a transition
