Research on troubles and corresponding policies in utility-scale solar PV

project development in Japan
English Summary
As utility-scale solar PV projects increase, more and more troubles with local inhabitants or
local governments are reported. The main causes of these troubles are landscape
preservation, disaster prevention, protection of the living environment, and getting
consensus with inhabitants as well as the lack of a national policy. In order to deal with
these problems, local governments are adopting 4 types of policy measures, including the
specification of restrictions on areas for solar PV projects. Local governments should have
discussions with local inhabitants about what types of renewable projects are preferable
and which policies are needed to achieve their goals.
