Tepco, the operator of the Fukushima power plant, plans to move away from nuclear power and into renewable energy, including floating offshore wind.

The company first announced a plan to diversify its generating capacity earlier this year, but it was not immediately clear what form that might take. The company’s president told Nikkei that Tepco aims to develop renewable energy installations in Japan and overseas that produce 6 GW to 7 GW of power.
