Eshi BESS secured a LTDA contract from OCCTO in April 2025.
With a proposed operational life of 20+ years, the project will provide vital flexibility to enable more renewable energy generation and increase the resilience of the electricity network in Japan.
Eku Energy was awarded in Japan’s long-term decarbonisation power source auction (LTDA) from OCCTO for the four-hour battery storage asset to contribute to the stability of the electricity grid. Eshi BESS is expected to be operational no later than 2030.
