The year 2026 marks the 10th anniversary of Japan’s full liberalization of the retail electricity market, a major milestone in the country’s electricity system reform.
Over the past decade, Japan’s power industry has undergone a period of profound transformation. The nation’s power generation mix has evolved significantly, with dependence on fossil fuels gradually declining while the share of renewable energy has risen rapidly to 20–23 percent. As renewable energy adoption has accelerated, the range of market players has also expanded, exemplified by the increasing number of grid-scale battery storage facilities necessary for a stable power supply. Furthermore, with the creation of new markets such as the capacity market and the balancing market, as well as the introduction of advanced technologies including IoT, AI, and blockchain, the value of electricity is now becoming more diverse, sophisticated, and multifaceted than ever before.
Amid these waves of transformation, ENERES aspires to become a leading company in the energy platform sector.
Building on our supply-demand management services, which have been our core strength since our founding, we now operate seven businesses spanning the entire electricity supply chain, with renewable energy serving as the primary power source. Underpinning all of these businesses is the energy platform we have developed over the years.
Forecasting, management, control, and recording—these are indispensable functions for the distribution of electricity. By integrating these functions with cutting-edge technologies, we connect power generators, retail electricity providers, aggregators, and electricity users. We aspire to continuously create and deliver new value to all players involved in the energy ecosystem.
Our corporate philosophy is guided by the vision of “Creating new relationships between people and energy to realize a prosperous future society.” Never content with the status quo, we will continue to explore new possibilities for energy and embrace new challenges.
Looking ahead to the next decade, we envision a future in which the ENERES platform has become an integral part of everyday life, enabling everyone to enjoy sustainable and reliable energy without even having to think about it. We will devote our utmost efforts to making that prosperous future a reality.
