The importance of introducing renewable energy sources in the Asia-Pacific region is increasing to meet the increasing demands of energy and national energy security, and to solve climate change problems. Although various renewable energy policies have been introduced in several countries, the effects of these policies have not been fully analyzed. This research aims to show the effects of renewable energy policies in Asia-Pacific countries, using a new database system, "5D World Map". 5D World Map stores and generates multiple views of semantic and temporal-spatial relationships with various data types, such as images, documents, and numerical data. In this research, we especially focus on two major renewable energy policies: Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) and Feed-In Tariff (FIT). The effects of RPS and FIT in Asia-Pacific countries are analyzed by visualizing the information on the legal instruments related to RPS and FIT (e.g., purpose and numerical targets) and changes in the share of renewable energy in each country over the last ten years. This research shows that many countries in the Asia-Pacific region introduced FIT rather than RPS. Although renewable energy policies have been introduced in many countries, the increase in the share of renewable energy is still conservative. Since only a short time has passed after introducing FIT and RPS in the Asia-Pacific region, it is early to conclude that the current renewable energy policies have limited effects. More data accumulation is necessary for not only the Asia-Pacific but also other regions.
