It is Japan's first fund exclusively for energy storage that invests in, develop and operate new energy storage plants, including those equipped with renewable energy facilities, in the Kanto region and elsewhere in a one-stop manner.
Tokyo Gas would use its experience in energy trading markets to use battery storage to contribute to stabilising the grid and enabling greater integration of renewable energy.
The Fund is managed by GI Energy Storage Management, which was jointly established with Gore Street Capital (GSC), and is Japan's first dedicated fund that handles everything from investment and development to operation in new energy storage plants (including those with renewable energy facilities) in the Kanto area and elsewhere.
The fund will be targeted at projects in the Kanto region of Japan. TMG intends for the energy storage assets to support its efforts to expand renewable electricity usage to 50% by 2030. More information can be found here. Conclusion
Several megawatt-hours of residential battery storage systems, typically paired with solar PV, are being installed in Japan on a monthly basis. This is largely due to concerns about losing power at home, given the seismic activity the country is frequently subject to, as well as extreme weather events like typhoons.
A Growing Need for Energy Storage The increasing generation of renewables on the Japanese grid has led to various support policies and CAPEX subsidy schemes to support the deployment of grid-scale Battery Energy Storage (BESS).

The general principles of project finance that apply to the financing of solar and wind projects also apply to energy storage projects. Since the majority of solar projects currently under construction include a storage system, lenders in the project finance markets are willing to finance the construction and cashflows of an energy storage project.
These projects will have long-term predictable revenue streams. In addition, lenders may be willing to finance merchant cashflows, but with less leverage and subject to detailed market studies and cash sweeps. These trends for solar and wind projects also apply to energy storage projects.
Investors and lenders are eager to enter into the energy storage market. In many ways, energy storage projects are no different than a typical project finance transaction. Project finance is an exercise in risk allocation. Financings will not close until all risks have been catalogued and covered.
