Sojitz has signed a 20-year corporate power purchase agreement (PPA) with Kansai Electric Power and Osaka Titanium Technologies to deliver solar energy from hundreds of distributed-generation sites.
HDF Energy (Hydrogène de France) has signed a tripartite agreement with Indonesia’s PLN and PT SMI to fund €2.3 billion ($2.6 billion) of hydrogen projects, while Thyssenkrupp Nucera says it will conduct a front-end engineering design [FEED] study for a 600 MW hydrogen electrolysis plant in Europe.
Japan-based startup PXP Corporation and JGC Japan Corporation, a unit of JGC Corporation, are collaborating on a 1 kW one-year project to trial lightweight chalcopyrite panels in Yokohama City.
Canadian Solar Infrastructure Fund says April output fell 10.2% below forecast across its Japan portfolio due to increased grid curtailments, especially on the island of Kyushu.
The Japanese manufacturer said its new heat pump system features a coefficient of up to 5.42 and a seasonal energy efficiency ratio of up to 33.2
Scientists have analyzed whether planting turf and clover beneath solar panels can increase soil organic carbon, after measuring the results from a commercial plant in Japan. They tested more than 20 areas in the power plant and found that soil organic carbon increased.
A team of Japan-based scientists have set a new power conversion efficiency record for all-organic solar cells, more than doubling the previous record. They say the cell was developed with rganic electrodes with high conductivity that required no acid doping or high-temperature heating, which avoids damage to the plastic substrates.
Japan allocated 1.4 GW of battery energy storage (BESS) in the latest round of its Long-Term Decarbonization Auction (LTDA). The results showed BESS was the most oversubscribed technology, with only a fifth of the bid capacity awarded.
Panasonic has told its installation partners that it will no longer produce products for the residential solar and storage markets, but will continue to offer warranty and installation support for existing and ongoing projects.
The Japanese company said its new vertical mounting system is ideal for farmland, regions with heavy snowfall, along factory fences, and in parking areas.
