简介目录

2025年,日本天然气市场规模达7,18亿美元。 IMARC集团预测,到2034年,该市场规模将达到1,431亿美元,2026年至2034年的复合年增长率(CAGR)为7.97%。目前,日本正致力于向天然气转型,以实现能源结构的脱碳,同时确保能源安全和经济稳定。此外,鑑于全球情势的不稳定性,日本正积极透过液化天然气(LNG)进口来源多元化和扩大天然气储存能力来加强能源安全。同时,透过天然气整合推动产业和技术创新,也有助于提升日本天然气市场份额。

日本天然气市场趋势:

转型为低碳能源以实现气候目标

日本正朝着天然气转型,以实现能源结构的脱碳,确保能源安全和经济稳定。福岛核灾后,日本政府积极致力于减少对核能和煤炭的依赖,大力推广液化天然气(LNG)作为更清洁的替代能源。这项转型由长期政策策略驱动,例如第六个能源战略计划,该计划设定了2050年实现碳中和的宏伟目标。公共产业和工业企业正在投资基础设施维修,以支持高效低排放的LNG和联合循环燃气涡轮机的日益普及。此外,根据其永续性指南,日本正持续签订长期LNG供应合同,并探索碳中和的LNG解决方案。这些倡议,结合捕碳封存(CCS)技术的研究,确保天然气继续成为日本能源转型计画的基石,并为实现其环境目标奠定基础。根据总部位于韩国的气候变迁解决方案组织(SFOC)的报告,2013年至2024年间,日本公共金融机构在石油和天然气相关项目上投资了930亿美元(820亿欧元)。其中,560亿美元投资于国际液化天然气(LNG)开发案。

在地缘政治变化的背景下加强能源安全

鑑于全球能源格局的动盪,日本正积极致力于液化天然气(LNG)进口来源多元化和扩大天然气储存能力来加强能源安全。作为一个资源匮乏的国家,日本高度依赖LNG,尤其是在工业和发电厂的动力来源。在地缘政治紧张局势加剧的背景下,日本正日益依赖稳定的盟友来确保可靠的LNG供应。根据InHEdge数据显示,日本2025年4月的LNG进口量从前一周的2.575亿立方米/日增加到2.7199亿立方米/日。这一增长反映了自3月下旬以来持续的復苏趋势,显示日本正在进行有控制的调整。日本政府和私人企业也积极洽谈长期合约,并投资海外上游天然气资产,以确保稳定的天然气供应。同时,日本正在建造新的浮体式储存再气化装置(FSRU)并扩大现有设施,以建构国内缓衝体系,以应对供应衝击。这些战略措施重申了天然气作为安全且灵活的能源资源的地位,并促进了日本天然气市场的成长。

透过天然气一体化促进产业和技术创新

日本正透过在先进製造业和清洁能源技术领域利用天然气,稳步推动工业发展和技术进步。在电子、钢铁生产和化学製造等技术先进领域,由于天然气具有热能稳定、效率高、碳排放强度低于煤炭和石油等优势,其应用日益广泛。天然气也是氢气生产的原料,而氢气生产是日本长期能源和交通战略的核心。企业正在开发诸如气转氢等技术,该技术融合了蒸气甲烷重整和碳捕获,旨在建立更清洁的能源价值链。此外,高效能供电供热的天然气热电汽电共生机组也正在工业园区和智慧城市中推广应用。透过将天然气置于更广泛的创新体系的核心地位,日本不仅提升了产业竞争力,更将天然气作为支撑现代低排放量经济的核心要素。

The Japan natural gas market size reached USD 71.8 Billion in 2025 . Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 143.1 Billion by 2034 , exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.97% during 2026-2034 . At present, Japan is shifting towards natural gas as part of the decarbonization of its energy mix while ensuring energy security and economic stability. The country is also proactively improving its energy security by expanding the sources of its liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports and its gas storage capacity in light of unstable global energy trends. Moreover, the heightened focus on industrial and technological innovation through gas integration is expanding the Japan natural gas market share.

JAPAN NATURAL GAS MARKET TRENDS:

Shifting Towards Low-Carbon Energy to Achieve Climate Targets

Japan is shifting towards natural gas as part of the decarbonization of its energy mix, ensuring energy security and economic stability. The government is engaging actively in the reduction of dependence on nuclear power and coal in the wake of the Fukushima accident, thus ensuring liquefied natural gas (LNG) is a cleaner substitute. This shift is being facilitated by long-term policy strategies like the Sixth Strategic Energy Plan, which is laying out ambitious carbon neutrality goals by 2050. Utilities and industries are making investments in the refurbishment of infrastructure to support increased percentages of LNG and combined-cycle gas turbines, which are highly efficient and less emissions-intensive. In addition, Japan is persistently entering into long-term LNG supply agreements and researching carbon-neutral LNG solutions in accordance with sustainability directives. These are being integrated with carbon capture and storage (CCS) studies, so natural gas continues to be a pillar of Japan's transitional energy plan and moving forward toward environmental goals. Between 2013 and 2024, public financial institutions in Japan invested $93 billion (€82 billion) in oil and gas initiatives, according to a report by Solutions for Our Climate (SFOC), based in South Korea. International liquefied natural gas (LNG) development initiatives totaled $56 billion in this funding.

Energy Security Improvement During Geopolitical Volatility

Japan is proactively improving its energy security by expanding the sources of its LNG imports as well as its gas storage capacity in light of unstable global energy trends. As a resource-scarce nation, Japan relies enormously on energy imports, especially LNG, to power its industries and power plants. Against a backdrop of heightened geopolitical tensions, Japan is shifting its dependence on stable allies for reliable LNG supplies. As per InHEdge, in April 2025, LNG imports in Japan increased to 271.99 million cubic meters per day (Mcm/d), rising from 257.5 Mcm/d the week before. The rise indicates a consistent recovery that started in late March and suggests a managed modification. The government of Japan and private sector firms are also negotiating long-term agreements and taking stakes in foreign upstream gas assets to secure stable procurement. At the same time, Japan is constructing new floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) and expanding existing facilities to create domestic buffers against supply shocks. Such strategic steps are reaffirming natural gas as a safe and flexible energy resource, thereby contributing to the Japan natural gas market growth.

Facilitating Industrial and Technological Innovation through Gas Integration

Japan is progressively backing its industrial development and technological advancement through the use of natural gas in sophisticated manufacturing techniques and clean energy technology. The technologically advanced sectors of the nation, such as electronics, steel production, and chemical manufacturing, are becoming dependent on natural gas due to its stable heat energy, efficiency, and lower carbon intensity than coal and oil. Natural gas is also being utilized as a feedstock in hydrogen production, a central pillar in the long-term energy and mobility strategies of Japan. Businesses are developing gas-to-hydrogen conversion technologies, for example, steam methane reforming integrated with carbon capture, to create cleaner value chains for energy. Industrial parks and smart cities are also being constructed with natural gas-fueled cogeneration units that supply electricity as well as heat effectively. By locating natural gas at the center of its more extensive innovation system, Japan is not only cultivating industrial competitiveness but also making sure that natural gas is at the center of supporting a modern, low-emission economy.
