Japan Energy Storage Policies and Market Overview
Japan''s energy storage policies, market statistics, and trends—from METI''s strategic plans and subsidy programs to deployment challenges.
View DetailsTable 6 displays Japans primary pumped-storage hydroelectric power stations of note. For the most part, these pumped hydro energy storage sites have installed capacity in excess of 1,000,000 kW (1,000 mW). 95In addition, one of the sites, the Kannagawa Hydropower Plant, is still under construction, with completion slated for 2020.
Japan currently has the worlds largest pumped hydro storage capacity, with over 25GW of pumped hydro energy storage available, even according to pre-Fukushima figures.96 94Yano Research Institute Ltd. (2015), ^Stationary ESS (Energy Storage System) Market in Japan: Key Research Findings 2015, Tokyo, Japan
In principle, Japan is an ideal market for the rise of pumped hydro energy storage. Japans geography provides for both extensive topographical differences and large densely-populated energy consumption markets. In combination, these two factors can support a large number of very large-scale pumped-hydro energy storage sites.
The Renova-Himeji Battery Energy Storage System is a 15,000kW lithium-ion battery energy storage project located in Himeji, Hyogo, Japan. The rated storage capacity of the project is 48,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology. The project will be commissioned in 2025.
