ABSTRACT If we are to define energy security as the availability of energy at all times in various forms, in sufficient quantities and at affordable prices, without unacceptable or irreversible impact on the economy and the environment, Japan is facing an energy security predicament. For a country that was already uneasy about energy security, the Fukushima’s accident has brought a new level of focus on Japan’s energy security challenges and its foreign policy. This undergraduate thesis will argue that Japan is facing some significant energy security challanges after the triple disaster of March 2011, most notably a very low energy sufficiency ratio and a heavy reliance on the Middle East. This undergraduate thesiswill also consider the potential to improve Japan’s energy security position through its underdeveloped relationship with Russia.
