Self-consumption solar power generation for businesses is increasingly being introduced using the on-site PPA (power purchase agreement) model, in which solar power generation equipment is installed on the roof at a cost. of the power generation company. On the other hand, many PPA businesses give priority to large companies in their proposals from a sales efficiency standpoint, so small and medium-sized companies have less chance of receiving proposals.
RoofPlus, announced this time, features remote monitoring by Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance, which has know-how in risk management, RDo, which has know-how in financial planning and renewable energy. is the largest O&M (operation and maintenance) provider in Japan. ) services providing solar power generation equipment.

It is said that an installment contract with the rental company will eliminate the burden of one-time initial costs and can be expected to reduce electricity costs right from the first year.
This package includes remote monitoring using Smart Energy's RPA (Robotic Process Automation) and regular reporting services on CO2 reduction, supporting Scope 3 decarbonization measures. Reporting services Periodically measure and report CO2 reduction monthly for 15 years.
As a leader in promoting carbon neutrality in the region, we will work with local core companies and financial institutions such as regional banks to propose implementation of the system. This system serves as a countermeasure to our business partners' skyrocketing electricity prices. By FY 2030, we will create a network of approximately 2,000 SMEs, construction companies that can handle 200 MW of solar generation capacity and reduce CO2 emissions by 95,260 tons, while create a support system for the deployment of solar energy equipment.
