Upsolar Japan at PV EXPO 2026

Upsolar Japan Co., Ltd., a distinguished manufacturer of solar panels and mounting systems based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is preparing to showcase its innovative solar solutions at the upcoming "PV EXPO Solar Power Generation Exhibition (Autumn)" held from September 9 to 11, 2026, at Makuhari Messe. The company's exhibition will highlight products that offer unique solutions to recognized challenges in the solar industry, particularly focusing on the aging solar panel issue faced by many users across Japan.

Addressing the Aging Panel Challenge

With more than a decade passing since the inception of the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) system, many solar power systems installed during the early days are now entering a critical phase of needing replacement or updating due to equipment aging, panel failures, and degradation. Unfortunately, many of the panels installed at that time are no longer in production, leading to significant issues for users trying to find compatible replacement panels. The common complaints heard from clients revolve around the unavailability of identical panels and the incompatibility of current larger panels with existing mounting systems.

To tackle these issues head-on, Upsolar Japan has developed and is manufacturing what it terms “obsolete size panels.” These panels are designed to match the dimensions and outputs widely adopted during the early FIT era. By enabling customers to replace panels while utilizing their existing mounting systems, Upsolar effectively reduces downtime and costs, facilitating quicker recovery and upgrade of their solar power installations.

Feature Products at the Exhibit

During the exhibition, attendees will have the opportunity to experience first-hand some of Upsolar's distinctive products:

1. Lightweight Anchoreless Mounting System "UP-Base NEO"
This unique mounting device employs an anchoreless method that prevents any penetration through the roof, thereby avoiding damage to the waterproof layer while allowing the installation of solar arrays. This lightweight system is ideal for various installation types, including public facilities like schools and government buildings, as well as for industrial use on rooftops of factories and warehouses.

2. Vertical Solar Mounting System for Heavy Snow Areas "UP-Stand"
The innovative design facilitates vertical panel placement, making it resistant to the loads of heavy snowfall. It is ideally suited for agricultural solar sharing applications and tackles the growing demand for solar installations in farming contexts.

3. Obsolete Size Panels
This product line consists of panels sized and output-standardized to align with installations from the inception of the FIT scheme. They help ensure compatibility with existing installations that originally employed panels now out of production, assisting users in upgrading their systems without replacing entire setups.
