Energy Solutions Company
Although demand for industrial-use solar cells in
Japan continues to languish, there is significant
potential demand in energy-related markets.
Under these circumstances, in Japan we lever-
age our expertise in solar cells and storage bat-
teries to propose solutions that link HEMS and
energy-efficient appliances via the cloud.
Overseas as well, we will promote solutions
matched to local needs making the most of our
solar cells. This entails stepping up advancement
of various technologies, such as EPC* business
and PV Diesel Hybrid (combining with diesel pow-
er generation) in Asia, Peak Cut System (lowering
electricity charges by cutting power consumption
at peak times) in the Americas, and PV Thermal
System (deploying solar heat) in Europe.
