Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) have long been the dominant choice for energy storage for grid applications. Despite their widespread adoption, LiBs pose several critical challenges that
Contact UsTokyo Gas is also participating in the Japanese utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) market, signing a 20-year tolling offtake deal with Australian developer Eku Energy for a forthcoming 30MW/120MWh project.
As the demand for energy storage evolves, Japan is faced with the challenge of diversifying its battery technology to enhance energy security, reduce costs, and address supply chain vulnerabilities.
As policy, technology, and decarbonization goals converge, Japan is positioning energy storage as a critical link between its climate targets and energy reliability. Japan's energy storage policy is anchored by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), which outlined its ambitions in the 6th Strategic Energy Plan, adopted in 2021.
Their enhanced safety profile, due to a reduced risk of thermal runaway compared to LiBs, can make them suitable for large-scale grid storage and disaster resilience initiatives, a priority for Japan given its vulnerability to earthquakes and extreme weather events.
