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.
How can Stonepeak help accelerate Japan's power industry decarbonization?
Leveraging Stonepeak’s investment experience in Japan’s renewable sector and CHC’s technical expertise, the platform will focus on developing, constructing, and operating BESS projects to accelerate Japan’s power industry decarbonization.
Why is NTT launching a lithium-ion battery system in Japan?
Japan has urgent climate goals and rising electricity use. So, it’s important to cut the time and cost needed to set up storage systems. This model helps utilities and businesses adopt it more widely. Lithium-ion batteries lead the market, but NTT is also looking into sodium-sulfur (NaS) batteries. These batteries work well in high temperatures.
