ENERES Co., Ltd.

ENERES Co., Ltd. is recruiting companies and other entities (hereafter, “businesses”) to cooperate in power supply through demand response (DR) when power supply shortages are expected in FY2027.

Supply methods will include DR response through control of distributed energy sources such as storage batteries and private power generators, and production line operation time shifts. Participation is possible even with small-scale power consumption reduction^[1]. While contributing to resolving power supply shortages by effectively utilizing existing facilities, this can also be reported to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as an initiative addressing “optimization of electricity demand” under the revised Energy Conservation Act enforced in April 2023. The application deadline is the end of January 2025.

Supplied power will be traded as “operation-instructed power sources” in the “capacity market” through our company as an aggregator (specified wholesale supply business)^[2]. ENERES will support everything from necessary procedures for power supply to DR response.

We have continuously conducted this initiative contributing to stable supply since FY2017. We were registered as the first aggregator in FY2022 and have the distinction of being the first in Japan to supply power through electric vehicle (EV) control^[3]. Please consult with us first, as we will propose optimal operations according to businesses’ facilities and requirements.

ENERES will create new relationships between people and energy while contributing to realizing a society where renewable energy is the main power source, working toward creating a prosperous future society.
