It's the first time in Japan! Develop a virtual power plant (VPP) construction project at Kohoku Ward General Government Building

Under the slogan "Zero Carbon Yokohama," Yokohama City is strengthening measures to combat global warming and energy, and is promoting initiatives to realize a sustainable urban model.
As part of this effort, we have installed storage battery equipment at elementary and junior high schools (47 schools in 18 wards) designated as evacuation shelter since fiscal 2016.
This time, as the first initiative in Japan, we will apply the VPP construction project to the ward government building and install storage batteries in accordance with the power supply contract. Through the VPP construction business, we will lead to efficient use of energy and strengthening of disaster prevention systems.
