The Japanese government started implementing the winter energy saving plan on December 1 and will continue until March 31 next year. The Japanese government is urging people to wear more clothes indoors in winter, lower the temperature of their heating, install thick curtains and turn off the lights. The government will also cooperate with energy supply companies to encourage consumers to save electricity through the reward points system. Since the beginning of this year, international energy prices have fluctuated and supply has been volatile. For Japan, heavily dependent on imported energy, the supply of liquefied natural gas used as fuel for thermal power generation continues to be unstable.
