*Figures for industry-owned generation represent the total amount generated by power plants with a generating capacity of 1,000 kilowatt or above.

Due to the launch of the licensing system in fiscal 2016, certain operators’ electric power generation that had theretofore been counted as for self-consumption has instead been counted as for electricity utilities since fiscal 2016.
