Scaling Energy Transition Technologies in the Real World: The Japanese Industrial Perspective

Scaling energy-transition technologies is fundamentally an environmental systems challenge: life-cycle emissions reductions depend not only on technical performance, but on effective integration between policy, finance, and existing infrastructure. This session examines selected hydrogen and carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects in the United States, alongside Japan’s industrial and policy strategy—including its hydrogen price-gap support mechanism and recent commercial-scale hydrogen and ammonia deployments—to illustrate how durable, measurable decarbonization is achieved in real-world contexts.
