(Bloomberg) - Japan's proposed incentives for renewable energy will boost solar panel installations and help wean the nation off nuclear power, industry lobby groups and developers said. A government panel Wednesday recommended solar power providers earn 42 yen (52 U.S. cents) a kilowatt-hour for the electricity they produce, three times the 13.65 yen charged to industrial and commercial users, according to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The preferential rate, known as a feed-in tariff, for solar power was recommended for 20 years. "The start of the feed-in tariff program will be a major step forward to expand the solar power market," said Tetsuo Kuba, president of Kyocera Corp., a solar panel maker. "We will expand our businesses in the mega-solar market," Kuba said in a statement. The panel's recommendation, which must be approved by Industry Minister Yukio Edano, marks another step in scaling back atomic power following the disaster at the Fukushima Dai- Ichi Plant last year and reducing carbon emissions linked to fossil fuel use. Japan currently gets about 9% of its electricity from renewables. The government's feed-in tariffs will require power utilities to pay above-market rates for electricity generated from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. Wind and Geothermal Wind-generated power was recommended at 23.10 yen a kilowatt hour for plants with the capacity of 20 kilowatts or more and 57.75 yen for smaller ones, both for 20 years. For geothermal, the panel suggested 27.30 yen a kilowatt hour for plants with the capacity of 15,000 kilowatts or more and 42 yen for smaller plants, both for 15 years. The feed-in tariffs will be introduced in July to spur investment in solar, wind, geothermal, biomass and hydroelectric power generation. The program will replace an earlier one called "renewable portfolio standards" that require electricity retailers to buy set amounts of clean power at a price negotiated betwee

The former Massachusetts governor sought to shift the campaign debate to energy after a week that has been dominated by the fallout from the comments made by Rep. Todd Akin of Missouri. Romney called on Akin to drop out of Missouri's U.S. Senate race after the congressman made the scientifically baseless assertion during an interview that women have a biological mechanism for preventing pregnancy after a "legitimate rape." The uproar over the comments has drawn unwelcome attention to the abortion views of Romney's running mate, Rep. Paul D. Ryan, who has worked with Akin on several pieces of legislation and shares his opposition to abortion, without exceptions."
