Japan's primary import is energy resources, particularly crude oil and natural gas. With limited domestic fossil fuel reserves, Japan relies heavily on foreign energy sources to meet its energy needs. The nation has been increasingly focused on diversifying its energy imports, especially following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, which led to a significant reduction in its nuclear power generation. Additionally, Japan imports various raw materials, food, and consumer goods, but the reliance on energy imports remains a crucial aspect of its economy. As Japan moves towards sustainable energy solutions, this import dependency is evolving.
