Fukushima Solar Farm
Fukushima Solar Farm
Located in Matsukawa-cho, the Fukushima Solar Farm repurposes a 60-hectares disused golf course at the outskirts of the prefecture. The project will have more than 63,000 solar panels installed and a capacity of 44 MWp. Comprehensive environmental impact assessments were conducted to ensure the continuous thriving of wildlife habitats during and after construction. The project is anticipated to commercialise by September 2025. Once the project is commissioned, it can generate 47 GWh of clean electricity annually for Fukushima residents, effectively reducing 20,586 metric tonnes of carbon emissions.
This project will benefit the wider local community – from job creation to clean energy access. It serves as a beacon of progress and enhance the quality of life for the region and contributes to economic vitality.
This is part of EDP Renewables ambition to support decarbonisation efforts in Fukushima, contributing to Japan’s renewable energy goals.
Our project meets all Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture, METI and other relevant laws and safety regulations in Japan. We conduct regular inspections to ensure compliance with all safety protocols, including water turbidity and water purity tests since July 2024 and chemical analysis of water quality at key milestones throughout our construction process.
