Building a house in Tokyo? Budget for solar.
Tokyo will require that houses being built by major companies will have to include solar panels starting in early 2025, according to Kyodo News (via Electrek).
It’s a solid move, but the Japanese capital is far from the first to make it: California passed a similar law in 2018, and countries like China and France have also been looking into pushing solar infrastructure in various ways. The EU has also proposed requirements of its own.
