Japan unveiled the Green Innovation Fund in 2020 to commercialize transformative technology.
Japan`s Green Innovation Fund, is focused on bringing gamechanging technology to commercialisation. This, coupled with increased investment from domestic, local and corporate venture capital makes climate tech one of the hottest growth areas. Next generation battery technologies, solar cells, hyper-powerful EV charging infrastructure, hydrogen & floating offshore wind and marine energy technologies are accelerating at great pace.
With Tokyo Government announcements mandating a 150x increase in EV chargers, and mandatory PV solar installations on new residential buildings, there is strong growth opportunity in these sectors. The trend to electrify everything, as well as ever more powerful computers and personal devices with the ascent of AI technology, is driving never before seen demand for new battery chemistries and technologies.
