TAOKE ENERGY's First Operational Project in Tochigi

In November 2025, TAOKE ENERGY Co., Ltd., headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, introduced its inaugural operational project, a battery storage facility located in Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture. This facility marks a significant milestone for the company as it begins to actively engage in the demand response market, a critical component of energy management in Japan.

With the completion of the facility, TAOKE ENERGY transferred business rights to its customers. However, before commencing operations and transferring these rights, the company was required to follow specific procedures mandated by relevant laws. TAOKE ENERGY provided comprehensive support throughout this process, ensuring all necessary applications and approvals were handled efficiently.

The site where the facility is located falls within an urbanization control area. Hence, starting operations required obtaining necessary qualifications certified by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy. Although TAOKE ENERGY already held the required qualifications, the transfer of operational rights to the customer necessitated them to obtain the necessary certifications themselves.

To facilitate the customer's qualification acquisition and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, TAOKE ENERGY went beyond just transferring business rights. The company diligently supported the customer through the entire application process, offering technical insights, document preparation, and submission assistance. This meticulous approach ensured that all necessary procedural steps were completed smoothly and efficiently, allowing the facility to successfully enter the demand response market.

TAOKE ENERGY is not merely focused on the development and construction of battery storage systems; it also sees itself as a long-term partner in supporting its customers' businesses. As the complexities of electricity market regulations increase, the requirements and procedures at every stage of business have become more sophisticated.

Through ongoing communication with its customers, TAOKE ENERGY accurately identifies the regulatory requirements and operational needs. The company consistently delivers comprehensive solutions, ranging from regulatory compliance support to operational assistance for battery storage facilities.

The entry of the Tochigi battery storage project into the demand response market is expected to significantly contribute to the regulation of fluctuating renewable energy outputs, thus aiding the overall stabilization of the power grid. TAOKE ENERGY remains committed to its role as a business partner, continuing to offer support in meeting regulatory requirements and providing various solutions for operational efficiency.

As society moves towards decarbonization, TAOKE ENERGY aims to maintain its contribution by focusing on strategic partnerships and helping customers navigate the evolving energy landscape.
