TOKYO, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — HD Renewable Energy Co., Ltd (HDRE) (6873.TW) announced its Japanese subsidiary’s successful acquisition of two bids for long duration decarbonized energy storage systems in the Japanese market. The systems, with a combined capacity of 73MW and an energy storage capacity of 97.9MW, mark a significant milestone. The two projects, situated in Mie-ken, Kinki, and Fukuoka, Kyushu, are slated to commence operations by 2027. Despite the Japanese market’s total estimated potential exceeding 5GW for such systems, the current bidding volume was only 1.09GW. HDRE’s procurement of 73MW in this round represents a strategic entry for the Taiwanese firm into Japan’s burgeoning energy storage sector.

Jason Chou, General Manager of HDRE, outlined the company’s ambitious plan to build 1.5GW of energy storage systems in Japan over the next three years, involving a capital investment of approximately NT$50 billion.

The approach aims to pinpoint the optimal times for energy storage and release its systems to maximize returns.
HDRE not only positions itself as a forerunner in the field of intelligent power, but also aims to extend to international power markets. Commencing its global expansion in power-liberalized markets such as Japan and Australia, HDRE plans to fully leverage its comprehensive competitive edge in green energy integration.
