Japan aims to eliminate gasoline-powered vehicles in about 15 years, in a plan to go carbon free by 2050

Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga delivers a policy speech at the upper house of parliament in Tokyo, Monday, Oct. 26, 2020. | Koji Sasahara/APTOKYO — Japan aims to eliminate gasoline-powered vehicles in about 15 years, the government said Friday in a plan to achieve Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga’s ambitious pledge to go carbon free by 2050 and generate nearly $2 trillion growth in green business and investment.

Suga, in a policy speech in October, pledged to achieve net zero carbon emissions in 30 years. As the world faces an environmental challenge, green investment is an opportunity for growth not a burden, he said. But it was unclear if Suga has the political heft to overcome vested interests in weaning resource-poor Japan from its reliance on imported oil and gas.
