6 Efforts of utilities on PV: current status Regulatory Framework FiT for surplus PV Power Compliance of RPS Introduction of PV power plant Promotion of customer-side PV Installation of PV system in their own facilities Green-Power Fund, subsidy for non-residential PV Large- scale PV projects 30 sites, 140 MW in total Promotion of all-electrified houses with PV system Demonstrative research International cooperation Grid stabilization International demonstration projects by NEDO (TEPCO, Shikoku, Kansai, Okinawa) Smart Grid Other projects

7 Feed-in Tariff for surplus PV power - Obligation to purchase surplus PV power by utilities since Nov Until the end of Oct 2009, utilities voluntary purchased surplus PV energy at the same price of retail electricity (Net Billing) - The enlargement of this scheme is under discussion in the diet (Gross FIT for non- residential application and other renewables) Source: METI FIT as of FY 2011 < 10kW PV: 42 yen/kwh < 10 kw - <500kW PV: 40 Yen/kWh Period: 10years

8 Regulatory Framework: Renewables Portfolio Standards (since 2003) Obligation on electricity retailors to use certain amount of electricity from renewables Achievement: In 2009, RE electricity supply doubled from 2003 METI decided to terminate RPS after implementing new FIT starts Renewables Portfolio Standards Act Goal & Target of Renewable Electricity ( 100GWh/year ) Goal Target (fiscal year) Source: METI
