Remixpoint's Renewable Energy Advancement

Remixpoint, Inc., listed under code 3825 and headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, has announced the completion of battery installation at its low-pressure solar power plant, Lumiere Kikuchi, located in Kikuchi City, Kumamoto Prefecture. This initiative represents a significant stride for the company as it transitions its solar projects from the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme to the Feed-in Premium (FIP) system, which is intended to enhance the profitability of renewable energy ventures.

On August 20, 2026, the installation work for the battery storage was finalized, ahead of the initial schedule which anticipated completion by October 2026. The plant, with a total generation capacity of approximately 500kW, has ten segments in operation. The FIP conversion project is part of Remixpoint’s broader strategy to improve their generation asset revenue and maximize business value through effective market mechanism adaptation.

Significance of the Lumiere Kikuchi Plant

This facility represents the first of Remixpoint’s low-pressure FIP conversion projects. The company plans to continue with the FIP transition process, aiming for completion by March 2027, followed by the plant’s official commencement of operations. Furthermore, the company is set to enter the demand and supply adjustment market starting in April 2027.

Positioning the Lumiere Kikuchi plant as a pioneering model in low-pressure FIP transitions, Remixpoint aims to gain essential insights and knowledge from the shift to battery storage and its operation. The company plans to leverage its existing expertise to expand its services, including assistance for other FIP transitions, battery installation, and aggregation in the future.

Across Japan, there are around 670,000 solar installations between 10kW and 50kW. Remixpoint aims to identify projects with economic feasibility for FIP conversion based on equipment and network conditions and harness insights from its owned facilities to assist in this area. With a vision to aggregate distributed battery resources over 1MW, the company is strategically positioned to enter the demand and supply adjustment market while identifying continued revenue opportunities from operations and aggregation.
