Technical FAQs 4

What is Japan's first energy storage project?

In 2015, we started Japan's first demonstration project covering energy storage connected to the power grid in the Koshikishima, Satsumasendai City, Kagoshima. This project is still operating in a stable manner today. One feature of our grid energy storage system is that it utilizes reused batteries from EVs.

When will Itochu launch its first energy storage station?

Going forward, the plan is to launch the first energy storage station around fiscal 2025, and then proceed with the development and operation of energy storage stations one after another. ITOCHU has developed a product lineup that meets market needs, from home storage batteries to large-scale energy storage systems for industrial and grid use.

Where in Japan will a solar power plant be built?

Geographically, three of the projects will be built in Ibaraki Prefecture, two in Kanagawa, Chiba, and Tochigi each, and one in Tokyo, Saitama, and Gunma each. As Japan works to expand battery storage amid growing solar and wind capacity, METI also runs a similar subsidy scheme at the national level.

What is Japan's first fund dedicated to grid storage batteries?
