Japan Hydropower Market News

  • In March 2022, a Japanese multinational imaging and electronics company, Ricoh, launched a pico-hydro generation system that can be used with the factory drainage systems and irrigation canals. The Pico-hydro systems are hydropower systems with less than 5kW capacity and are used as the economic and easy-to-deploy source of power in the world's most inaccessible places. According to the company, the system is made with 3D-printed sustainable materials based on recycled plastics and can generate electricity even with a small stream of water.
  • In August 2021, Asahi Kasei announced that it is planning to implement a large-scale renovation of the Suigasaki Hydroelectric Plant, which was completed in 1950, with a capacity of 18,000 kW, in Takachiho-Cho, Nishiusuki-gun, Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan. The large-scale renovation of the hydroelectric plant will boost the efficiency of the hydraulic turbines and generators, resulting in an annual reduction in CO2 emissions of about 10,000 tons. The work is scheduled to begin in October 2022, and the rebuilt plant is expected to start operation by 2025.
