Kyocera roped into Virtual Power Plant test project - home battery storage

In the new phase of virtual power plant (VPP) testing, Kyocera will focus on remotely managing energy supply and demand using home battery storage technology.
Kyocera has announced that it has registered with the sustainable and open innovation initiative (SII) as a resource aggregator for new projects that help control the energy resources of Japanese consumers.
In the new phase of virtual power plant (VPP) testing, Kyocera will focus on remotely managing energy supply and demand using home battery storage technology.
The project is part of a project implemented by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan (METI), which aims to test VPP using consumer energy.
Since the Great East Japan Earthquake in March 2011, the development of stable supply of renewable energy and the improvement of energy efficiency have received wide attention.
Therefore, there is a high demand for VPP that can remotely control and integrate distributed power resources, including battery and renewable energy generation facilities.
By using a highly accurate energy management system (EMS), VPP is expected to serve as a source of regulation and supply of energy.
The goal of the project participants is to establish a system that optimizes energy supply and demand through remote management.
Kyocera will use its home energy management system (HEMS) technology to remotely control energy from the battery supplied by Kyocera for each household.
The energy of the storage battery will be managed by the company's POM system, a comprehensive energy control system within 15 minutes (or less) of a significant change in demand ).
The VPP will test a method to ensure the regulated power supply of the grid by integrating consumer power resources.
VPP testing project is working with Kansai Electric Power Company, Inc. and ENERES Co. , Ltd.
As a parent aggregator, assume the possible power trading market and integrate and control multiple resource aggregators.
In addition to the test areas of Tokyo, Central and Kyushu Electric Power for VPP services that may be established last year, the areas covered by Kansai will also be added to Central and four-country electric power companies this year.
By expanding the field of testing and connecting more consumers, participants will be able to check the technical and institutional issues of hardware and software in a more realistic environment
World conditions.
Kyocera, together with METI and Institute of Applied Energy (IAE), participated in the early stages of the project, where participants established automatic demand response (ADR) in anticipation of the negawatt electricity exchange market, systems with aggregators and highly accurate demand response systems.
In 2016, Kyocera participated in the VPP testing project using battery and internet of things technology and ADR systems.

How Kyocera has benefited from the test project so far, aiming to use its solar power generation system and battery products to establish a group control system for distributed power resources that respond quickly to demand.
Kyocera will focus on developing technologies and batteries that respond to real needs
