Japan's nuclear restart safety regulations require operators to have a contingency plan for a 1-in-10,000-year earthquake or tsunami event.

The Tokyo region consumes approximately one-third of Japan's total electricity.

If all three units of the Tomari Nuclear Power Plant restart, they could meet between 50% and 75% of the entire power demand in the Hokkaido region.

Power prices in East Japan have been consistently higher than in West Japan due to the concentration of restarted nuclear plants in the west.

All but one of the 14 other nuclear reactors that have restarted in Japan since 2015 are located in West Japan.

Of the 9 nuclear reactors expected to restart by 2035, seven are located in East Japan.

The Strait of Hormuz is a transit corridor for one-fifth of the world's liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply.

Japan imports approximately 10% of its liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the Middle East.

Gas-fired power generation now constitutes 30% to 40% of Japan's total power supply.

Some Japanese nuclear reactors have been waiting for more than 12 years to receive restart approval from the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA).

Day-ahead power prices in Tokyo reached ¥64 per kilowatt-hour, equivalent to approximately $400 per megawatt-hour, on April 28th.

The development of large-scale "mega solar" plants in Japan has faced opposition from local communities.

Global interest in nuclear power is increasing due to its potential as a 24/7, zero-emissions power source for energy-intensive AI data centers.

Japan is the world's fifth largest consumer of electricity.

BloombergNEF forecasts Japan's restarted nuclear capacity will increase from 13 GW today to 18 GW by 2030 and 26 GW by 2040.

Before the 2011 Fukushima disaster, Japan had over 50 operational nuclear reactors which generated 26% of its electricity.

The 2011 Fukushima disaster prompted other countries, such as Germany, to pursue nuclear phase-out policies.

The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Unit 6 (KK6) reactor can only meet approximately 3% of the power demand in the Tokyo region.

The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Unit 6 (KK6) is the first reactor operated by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) to restart since the 2011 Fukushima disaster.

At 1,356 megawatts, Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Unit 6 (KK6) is the largest operating nuclear reactor in Japan.
