US and Japanese flags side by side

The US and Japan both seek to ensure energy security in an increasingly complex geopolitical landscape. Japan was foundational in building the liquified natural gas (LNG) market decades ago. How can deeper collaboration between the US and Japan today help cultivate hydrogen development, critical mineral supply chains, and infrastructure investments for next-generation energy systems? How can shared frameworks for carbon accounting, energy intensity standards and market-based approaches contribute to aligning their efforts for global impact? How can the two countries partner to help emerging economies meet their growing need for energy?

 

Join Wahba Institute Director Mark Kennedy as he interviews Tatsuya TERAZAWA, Chairman and CEO of Tokyo’s Institute of Energy Economics, to explore these and other questions essential to global energy security. Mr. Terazawa brings experience as the Executive Secretary to Japan’s Prime Minister, as a Vice Minister at METI, Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and as a senior advisor to the Cabinet Office.
