West New Zealand Village Grid-Scale Battery Storage Facility Begins Receiving Power

We completed construction of our first extra-high-voltage grid-scale battery storage facility on land adjacent to a solar power plant in Aki-Takata, Hiroshima Prefecture, and began receiving power on 1 April 2026. We plan to begin by trading in the wholesale electricity market and subsequently enter markets including the balancing market.
