Since the Great East Japan Earthquake, in order to respond to the growing demand for general household storage battery, from the summer of this year, (Ippei Takeda, following Nichicon chairman), the sunlight and Nichicon Corporation (Kyocera Tetsuo Kuba, the president) Kyocera Corporation By Kyocera sold exclusively towards the domestic market, a new system that combines high-capacity lithium-ion energy storage systems and power generation • high durability, since the agreement today, I will inform you.
■ achieve total control of high-efficiency energy (EMS) Energy Management System 京 Serra
Kyocera has developed the EMS to make effective use of energy to promote energy-related research and development with a view to market trends over the course of its history, utilizing proprietary technologies.
Solar cells and storage batteries, you need a power conditioner for its control. To a commercial power grid tie inverter interconnection (line) in combination with a variety of appliances to be used in the home, the home energy efficient control, EMS developed by Kyocera is required.
This solar power Kyocera ※ 1 # 2 market share, (Samsung SDI Co., Ltd) Nichicon is a new system was added to the energy storage system that employs a lithium-ion battery manufactured by Samsung SDI, the world’s largest that the control can be more efficient.
Future, we found that the system connects the system storage of the “energy storage” and the solar system, “energy creation”, the energy management of Kyocera Corporation, to market the system to operate more efficiently energy in the home, I will continue to contribute to the prevention of global warming.

■ background of market trends and new system implementation
Towards the realization of a low-carbon society by utilizing renewable energy, to eliminate the anxiety power supply since the earthquake, rapidly growing, utilizing the “energy storage” and “energy creation”, the demand for electricity by the peak shift and peak cut and there is a need for leveling, and local production for local consumption of electricity.
And subsidy system in the country for which it was resumed in January 2009, such as by purchasing scheme of surplus power, which began in November of the same year, solar home systems, the number of total installation the door one million during the fiscal year 2011 It has been forecast are expected to be surpassed, the future is going to spread at an annual rate increase of about 12% ※ 2.
In addition, the stationary lithium ion battery system, subsidy of ¥ 21.0 billion in operating expenses for up to support the introduction of three years, from fiscal 2011 was determined by the government. First year as the spread of storage system, the rise of the market in earnest this year is expected.

Kyocera calculated from (year forecast of 691 000/2020 253 000 of the estimated year / / 2011 for residential solar power generation)
■ Features of the new system
By Kyocera’s proprietary EMS, we will control more efficiently, a system with high superiority by taking advantage of technology’s top three companies in each industry.
• Kyocera’s solar panel power system of industry-leading solar cell
• storage unit Nichicon top domestic market share in the storage system for EV vehicle reliability is required
• Adopts Nichicon battery manufactured by Samsung SDI of the world’s largest lithium-ion battery
Storage system equipped with a high-capacity lithium-ion battery • High durability ①
I with a lithium-ion battery to be compared with the lead-acid battery has a durability of about five times ※ 3.
In the large-capacity type of 7.1kWh, weight has become about 200kg ※ 4, 120cm height, 90cm width, 35cm ※ 4 size and depth.
※ 4 ※ when announcing interim Kyocera estimated value 3.
With a wide variety of control modes that are tailored to the needs of our customers and the life pattern ②
To meet your needs, such as power or whether to assign priority to ensure your life patterns and preferences, such as whether the energy cost savings often at night or during the day when many of your home electricity usage, with a wide variety of control mode are.
Power supply is switched automatically to self-sustained operation (during a power failure), disaster relief featured ③
can be long even if a power failure, the power storage system to charge the electric power generated by the solar cell during the daytime in fine weather, autonomous operation function is mounted. Power usage is possible, even at night or when it is raining, you can use with confidence.
■ sales form
Sales of the new system that combines solar power inverter and energy storage systems to ① EMS
Sell storage systems, solar power systems for existing customers ② is controlled by the EMS
Available for customers who want more storage ③, the expansion of the power storage system (14.2kWh total)
■ sales channels
Kyocera Solar Kyocera Corporation is a national sales company of Kyocera solar power system will do. We will continue to expand and take advantage of franchise sales, housing manufacturers, and direct sales route.
