5 FAQs about [Japanese energy storage battery life]
Who owns the battery storage facility in Japan?
Project financing has been arranged by MUFG Bank representing the first battery storage project they have arranged finance for in Japan. Under the offtake agreement, Eku Energy will own the BESS while Tokyo Gas will own 100% of its operating rights for 20 years, with Eku Energy responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the facility.
Why is battery storage important in Japan?
As the global net zero transition accelerates, Japan has introduced its GX (green transformation) policy which provides a roadmap for economic growth and emissions reductions. Increasing renewable generation is a vital part of this roadmap and battery storage has a critical role to play in balancing electricity supply and demand.
Can EV batteries be reused in Japan?
One feature of our grid energy storage system is that it utilizes reused batteries from EVs. Although the penetration rate of EVs in Japan is still only about 1%, the Japanese government aims for 100% of all new passenger car sales to be EVs by 2035. This, at the same time, means that more batteries will be discarded.
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.
Can energy storage improve the reliability of Japan's grid?
“As Japan accelerates the development of renewable energy projects to meet its decarbonization goals, energy storage will have a crucial role to play in enhancing the reliability of the Japanese grid,” said Ryan Chua, Senior Managing Director at Stonepeak.
