2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 were warmest on record (WMO). Climate change impacts are occurring in various areas such as agriculture, disaster prevention,

and biodiversity.

Tiger mosquitoes（provided byNational Institute of Infectious Diseases ）

This area is a suitable habitat for tiger mosquitoes, causing a vector of dengue fever to spread north

Paddy field rice/Fruit trees

All or some unpolished rice is frequently damaged and produce white-opaque and immature grains, when daily mean temperature of the ripening period （heading, flowering, harvest） exceeds 27 degrees. This situation is especially serious in the Kyushu because of rising temperatures.

Pericarp and pulp are separated due to high temperature and increased rainfall after ripening （quality and shelf stability degradation）

1.5 ℃ scenario without CCS is extremely difficult

IPCC Special Report on the impacts of 1.5°C global warming

Emission from the power generation sector is almost zero (light blue frame)

Emission from industrial sectors is reduced by 75 to 90% compared to 2010 (50 to 80% of the 2DS) (red frame)

Japan’s Policies related to CCUS

Basic Environment Plan (Cabinet decision)

R&D and deployment of CCUS technologies

The Plan for Global Warming Countermeasures (Cabinet decision) 26% reduction by 2030

(Compared to 2013 levels) 80% reduction by 2050

Japan’s Long-term Development Strategy based on the Paris Agreement (Cabinet decision)

Effort for 80% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, pursuing every option Proclaiming a “decarbonized society” as early as possible in the latter half of this century Promotion of CCS/CCU, carbon-recycling (e.g. establishing commercial-scale CCU

technology by 2023/early practical use of CCUS)

2-1. Utilization:Incineration power generation with CCU in Saga City (FY2015-FY2016)

First Japanese CCU from waste power generation. Adding CC equipment to the waste power generation facility in Saga City. Carbon dioxide is sold in part from algae cultivators and commercialized

as cosmetics and supplements with anti-aging effect.

It gives highly additional value to waste power generation facilities, contributing to the dissemination of waste power generation and increased efficiency.

International cooperation is a key to accelerate CCUS. Demonstration of innovative amine solid sorbent for post-combustion CO2 capture

will be implemented at Wyoming Integrated Test Center (ITC), based on the MOU between JCOAL and the state of Wyoming.

In FY2018, MOEJ is conducting a Feasibility Study on the new sorbent at Wyoming ITC which includes site survey and concept design of the test plant.
