Permitting Essentials for Renewable Energy and Battery Storage Projects in Japan
This English-language webinar will provide practical guidance on the permitting and approval processes essential for renewable energy and battery storage (BESS) projects in Japan. Drawing on my experience advising on over 80 projects across the country, I will explain key permits such as Agricultural Land Conversion Permits, Forest Development Permits, Road Occupancy Permits, National Forest Use Permits, and more. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of the legal framework, key challenges, and common pitfalls relevant to developers and investors.
This webinar is likely the first of its kind to be delivered in English by a Japanese lawyer with practical experience in this field.
