Risk of fluctuations in power generation due to weather, disasters and equipment deterioration
First written in FY2018. 2 of 4 entries say "Reframed", first in FY2021. Latest entry: FY2024.
Asulina moved to the "Worse" side of this theme in 2024, 5 years after the typical company in this theme (2019).

1 other company's latest entry also says "Reframed".
- FY2024ReframedAnnual report
「As global warming progresses, there are concerns that impacts such as rising seawater temperatures and increased precipitation could increase the risks of reduced hours of sunlight and lower wind speeds.」
The explanation of the risk of fluctuations in power generation due to climate change was expanded beyond reduced hours of sunlight to include the effects of lower wind speeds, rising seawater temperatures and increased precipitation. Responses including equipment designed for extreme weather conditions, monitoring, insurance and inspections are also disclosed. - FY2023MitigatedAnnual report
「Accordingly, the Company’s group is designing its facilities to withstand extreme weather conditions and working to strengthen its monitoring systems so that it can promptly identify abnormalities at its power plants.」
In response to risks including reduced hours of sunlight due to climate change, the disclosure specifies equipment designed for extreme weather conditions and strengthened power plant monitoring systems. - FY2021ReframedAnnual report
「Because a reduction in sunshine hours directly leads to lower electricity sales revenue at solar power plants, climate change may affect the performance of our Group.」
The risk of fluctuations in power generation due to weather conditions, equipment degradation and disasters was expanded to include reduced hours of sunlight as a climate-change pathway associated with global warming. - FY2018First statedAnnual report
「Power generation at solar power plants is affected by weather conditions. If equipment degradation or accidents such as natural disasters or fires cause an unexpected divergence between projected and actual power generation, this could affect the performance of the Company’s group.」
The disclosure newly specifies the risk that weather conditions, equipment degradation, natural disasters and fires could cause actual power generation to diverge from projections.
