EcoFlow's Commitment to Disaster Relief in Kumamoto

In August 2023, the Kyushu region of Japan experienced unprecedented heavy rainfall, leading to significant flooding and devastation in areas like Kumamoto's Kamigunamatsu City. EcoFlow Technology Japan, a leader in renewable energy solutions and portable power technology based in Tokyo, has stepped in to support those affected by the disaster. This initiative aims to provide essential aid and support for recovery efforts in the area.

EcoFlow's contributions were organized through the emergency disaster response alliance SEMA (Social Emergency Management Alliance), which works alongside various civil society organizations to deliver much-needed assistance in the wake of natural disasters. Among the support provided by EcoFlow are portable power supplies and the innovative WAVE3 portable air conditioner, which are crucial for both immediate relief and subsequent recovery operations.

The Situation in Kamigunamatsu City

The impact of the heavy rains was severe, affecting over 600 properties due to water inundation, both above and below the floor level. In response, a disaster volunteer center was established to manage relief efforts, including the removal of household items and mud. EcoFlow's donation of equipment is being utilized in various affected locations, including community centers and residential properties. The WAVE3 air conditioners play a vital role in the ongoing muck removal operations, particularly by providing cooling relief in the stifling heat and aiding in the drying of flood-damaged areas.

Features of the WAVE3 Portable Air Conditioner

• - Cooling capacity of up to 1.8kW
• - Heating capacity of up to 2kW
• - Built-in dehumidifier
• - Operates continuously for up to 8 hours on eco mode with an exclusive battery pack

Supporting Disaster Relief Organizations

In line with its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, 'EcoFlow Power For All', EcoFlow has also donated the DELTA 3 Plus portable power station to six civil organizations that are part of SEMA. This initiative is aimed at reinforcing the operational capability of these organizations as they participate in recovery missions following the disaster.

The civil organizations that received support include:

• - ADRA Japan (Non-profit)
• - Civic Force (Public corporation)
• - Peace Winds Japan (Non-profit)
• - Peace Boat Disaster Relief Center (Public corporation)
• - Disaster NGO Collaboration Center
• - HuMA (Disaster Medical Assistance Team)
