The importance of international cooperation is considered in the context of ensuring Japan's energy security. The concept of energy security and its importance for the sovereignty of the state is analyzed. The role of international energy relations in the modern world is analyzed, and the strategic partnerships that Japan is developing to ensure sustainable access to resources are highlighted. Special attention is paid to Japan's diplomatic efforts aimed at diversifying energy sources, ensuring technological exchange and promoting the development of energy-efficient solutions. Japan has historically considered international cooperation as one of the ways to solve its energy problems. The country is a member of many international organizations and actively participates in international conferences and initiatives. Japan is not only a stable importer of resources, but also an exporter of various energy technologies. Japanese electric power companies operate all over the world. Each of Japan's electric power companies has individual agreements with foreign companies to share a wide range of information including that on power generation, distribution and quality control. Due to the fact that Japan does not have a significant raw material base for the development of industry and meeting energy needs, the main tool for solving the country's resource problems is to build active long-term relationships with resource-rich countries. The conducted research shows that ensuring stable supplies of energy resources has been the cornerstone of Japan's economic diplomacy for many decades. The article emphasizes the importance of global cooperation in the field of energy for ensuring sustainable development and ensuring national energy security in the face of modern challenges and changes in the global energy paradigm.
