Tokyo makes solar panels mandatory for new homes built after 2025
All new houses in Tokyo built by large-scale homebuilders after April 2025 must install solar power panels to cut household carbon emissions, according to a new regulation passed by Tokyo's local assembly last week.
The mandate requires about 50 major builders to equip homes of up to 2,000 square meters with renewable energy power sources, mainly solar panels.
Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike noted that just 4% of buildings where solar panels could be installed in the city have them now.
This is a great first step for a transition to renewable energy! I hope the city of Tokyo will also expand this to already-built houses.
