Juwi Shizen Energy completes construction 100 MWp solar project in Fukushima

Juwi Shizen Energy has completed the construction of a 100 MWp (DC) solar photovoltaic project located in Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan and the handover was completed on March 31, 2023.

The construction of this power plant began in August 2022 on approximately 186 hectares (most of which were converted from abandoned agricultural land following the application of the newly enacted Japanese legislation to promote renewable energy power generation). The project is expected to generate annually about 107 million kWh of clean and reliable energy, enough to power approximately 31,000 households and avoid over 50,000 metric tons of CO2-equivalent emissions per year.

Juwi has acted as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor of the solar farm for the project developer Azuma Kofuji 1 Power Plant G.K.
