Energy imports, net (% of energy use)

Energy imports, net (% of energy use) in Japan was 93.02 as of 2015. Its highest value over the past 55 years was 93.98 in 2014, while its lowest value was 41.88 in 1960.

Definition: Net energy imports are estimated as energy use less production, both measured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a net exporter. Energy use refers to use of primary energy before transformation to other end-use fuels, which is equal to indigenous production plus imports and stock changes, minus exports and fuels supplied to ships and aircraft engaged in international transport.
