New Energy Storage Facility in Fukuoka

Nippon Chikudenchi Co., Ltd. has recently announced the commencement of operations for its new energy storage facility, called "NC Miyama City Setaka-cho Okusa Storage Facility," located in the Miyama City of Fukuoka Prefecture. This facility began receiving power on July 1, 2026, marking a significant advancement in regional energy management.

The NC Miyama City Setaka-cho Okusa facility is strategically positioned as a decentralized energy hub, designed to absorb and stabilize the fluctuations in output from renewable energy sources. This stabilization is vital for ensuring smooth operations in various markets including the Japan Electric Power Exchange (JEPX), and the demand-supply adjustment market, as well as the capacity market. The facility also serves as a crucial disaster prevention site, contributing to local reliability and resilience during emergencies.
