Introducing MIRARESI: A Revolutionary Disaster-Resistant Apartment System

MIRARTH Holdings Inc., based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has announced its ambitious plan to implement the innovative disaster-resistant apartment system, MIRARESI, across all newly built condominium properties under its brands, LEBEN and NEBEL. This initiative signifies a substantial leap towards integrating renewable energy solutions into residential living spaces.

What is MIRARESI?

MIRARESI is designed to enhance the quality of life for residents by utilizing solar panels to generate renewable energy, which significantly alleviates household expenses. During emergencies, the built-in storage batteries will provide essential power for water pumps, ensuring access to water and electricity. The system's objective is to maintain residents' quality of life even in disaster situations. To further enhance safety and preparedness, every unit will feature a MIRARESI Mission Card and necessary disaster supplies that aid residents in home evacuation scenarios, fostering greater awareness and preparedness for potential catastrophes.

Background on Development: Addressing Key Resident Concerns

Recent surveys reveal that residents are particularly anxious about toilet access and water supply during emergencies, often exacerbated by power outages that halt water pump operations in high-rise apartments. A staggering 87% of respondents expressed interest in disaster-resistant living spaces, with the usability of toilets during disasters ranking as the most concerning aspect.

Responding to this pressing need, MIRARTH is committed to developing resilience-focused apartments that prioritize the availability of water and electricity, addressing these concerns directly.

Core System Components

1. Solar and Battery Systems Supporting Lifelines:
The integrated battery systems will power water pumps during disasters, enabling continuous access to water and toilet facilities. Additionally, each unit will benefit from individual solar panels and portable batteries that provide essential electricity for smartphones, refrigerators, and lighting, ensuring a comfortable living environment even during home confinement.

2. Disaster Response Tools: The MIRARESI Mission Card:
The MIRARESI Mission Card is an actionable guideline tool that helps residents understand their roles during emergencies, detailing who should do what in the event of various natural disasters, such as blackouts or flooding. This initiative encourages swift action using the emergency supplies available both in shared and individual areas of the building.

3. Regular Delivery of Essential Disaster Supplies:
To prevent spoilage of emergency provisions and facilitate discussions about disaster preparedness among families, a 10-year supply subscription service is offered, ensuring residents remain equipped and informed.

The flexible, responsive service menu will begin with the rollout of MIRARESI at the new development, LEBEN Hikarigaoka GLOW GARDEN, in April 2026, followed by expansion to additional properties.

Validation of the MIRARESI System

In partnership with Kawamoto Seisakusho and Ebara Jitsugyo, MIRARTH successfully conducted tests on the MIRARESI system, showcasing the seamless interaction between water pump units and the power conditioning and storage units. The successful execution of these tests confirms the reliability of the system.

Commitment to Sustainability

MIRARTH Holdings is driven by a core purpose: to design a sustainable environment for the happiness of both people and the planet. With increasing global focus on carbon neutrality, MIRARTH is evolving its business model to support sustainable energy - notably through the recent amendment of the law surrounding energy consumption performance in buildings. This shift has led to more stringent energy-saving standards for newly built condominiums that will meet ZEH (Net Zero Energy House) guidelines.

The Tokyo government has mandated the installation of solar power systems and EV charging stations in new residential buildings starting April 2025. As natural disasters grow more severe with climate change, the need for robust disaster preparedness is recognized by government initiatives, signaling that disaster resilience is becoming an essential consideration for potential residents.

By integrating standard solar power installations and pursuing 100% renewable energy for condominiums, MIRARTH is proactively enhancing both environmental performance and the safety of residences today.

Conclusion

Through its comprehensive approach to disaster resilience and sustainability, MIRARTH Holdings is not only revolutionizing the residential landscape in Japan but is also setting a precedent for future developments in eco-friendly living. With the commitment to launching the MIRARESI system, the company affirms its dedication to fostering a resilient society equipped to face the increasing challenges posed by climate change and natural disasters.
