Stonepeak/CHC energy storage platform secures five projects in Japan
The Stonepeak/CHC energy storage platform has secured 20-year fixed revenue capacity market contracts for five battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, totalling
The Battery Storage industry in Japan is influenced by several key factors. Firstly, the regulatory environment is crucial, as government policies promote renewable energy integration and energy storage solutions. The Feed-in Tariff (FiT) and Feed-in Premium (FiP) schemes encourage investments in battery storage technologies.
Global market relevance is underscored by Japan's position as a leader in advanced battery manufacturing, particularly in lithium-ion technologies. As the world moves toward electrification and renewable energy sources, Japan's battery storage sector is poised for significant growth, making it an attractive area for investment and research.
“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.
For Eku Energy, the LTDA is important to the business model of its Japanese projects but the developer, perhaps best known for projects in the UK and Australia, sees three pathways to commercialisation for large-scale batteries in Japan. The company secured a 20-year tolling agreement for its first Japan project, the 30MW/120MWh Hirohara BESS.
