The Japanese government is seeking to expand solar power by enacting subsidies and a (FIT). In December 2008, the announced a goal of 70% of new homes having solar power installed, and would be spending $145 million in the first quarter of 2009 to encourage home solar power. The government enacted a feed-in tariff in November 2009 that requires utilities to purchase excess solar power sent to the grid by homes.
