After the Fukushima Nuclear accident occurred in Japan in 2011, the government was cautious about nuclear energy use.However, the Ukrainian war led to tight energy, making it difficult for Japan to say "no" to nuclear energy.Japanese Prime Minister Kishita Kishita talked about nuclear power, saying that weighing the start of nuclear power plants is the key to Japan's difficulties.
Kishida admitted in a TV program last week that Russia and Ukraine war caused tension for energy supply.Japan's energy policy is to reduce carbon emissions, ensure energy supply and stable prices.To achieve these three, restart the nuclear power plant is a key."If a nuclear power plant can be started, it is equivalent to providing 1 million tons of liquefaction natural gas to the market. For Japan with scarce resources, nuclear energy is one of the important energy sources. We must resolutely promote the restart of the nuclear power plant under the premise of security."
At present, only six nuclear facilities are still operating among the 54 nuclear facilities in Japan, and the power supply only accounts for 3.9%of the overall.
The "Nuclear Energy Promotional" in the Liberal Democratic Party has recently passed the resolution of restarting nuclear energy. The largest faction leader in the party said: "The high energy prices have a great impact on the economy.Nuclear power plant. "
Japan's self -sufficiency rate is only 11.2%
Zhaofu, the third village of the Japan Commercial and Industry Conference, pointed out that Japan's energy is only 11.2%.After the outbreak of the Ukrainian war, energy prices soared, and the price increase in gasoline and electricity bills put pressure on Japanese families.It is necessary to refer to European countries that rely on Russian energy, such as France has begun restarted nuclear power plants.
However, Japanese public opinion pointed out that expanding nuclear energy will face other risks. For example, shortly after the outbreak of the Ukrainian war, Russia controlled nuclear power plants to start nuclear energy facilities or bring greater risks to Japan.
It is reported that the Japanese Atomic Energy Commission said that the Japanese nuclear power equipment's counter -terrorism measures can resist the impact of the aircraft, but they have not yet available for "armed attacks".Therefore, if the official is to expand the use of nuclear facilities, in addition to preventing nuclear accidents, it is necessary to consider safety measures for "force attacks".
