Japan to scrap plan to boost nuke energy to 50 percent
Prior to the Sendai earthquake, nuclear plants supplied about 30% of Japan's electricity, and the government had planned to raise that to 50% by 2030. Now, however, the country will pursue wind, solar, and biomass energy sources as an alternative to what has come to be seen as a risky choice for meeting the country's energy needs

The above announcement ( in blue ) demonstrates the inherent flaws in top down control of energy decisions or any decisions for that matter. Governments are staffed with people who would not be described as polymaths ( although they certainly think they are ) and they repeatedly make stupid decisions. It would be impossible for them to do otherwise since any top down approach ( including democracy ) cannot utilize the power of the IPPP. ( Intelligent Puzzle Pieces Paradigm ) Google ==> 99IPPP
