Japan Climate Fund

Japan Climate Fund is a climate-focused grant fund established in 2026 within the Public Resource Foundation in Tokyo. Its first programme supports community-led solar sharing, also known as agrivoltaics, where solar panels are installed above farmland so crops and renewable electricity can be produced on the same land. The fund was launched with support from Tara Climate Foundation and aims to improve farmer and community resilience to climate change, stabilise rural economies, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through wider adoption of renewable energy. Its inaugural grant programme offers up to ¥10 million per project for activities such as farmer education, local partnerships, project development support, case-study communication, and guidelines for nature-positive or community-benefit solar sharing.
