We have delivered 46 units of GE Vernova’s 3.2 MW wind turbines (model: 3.2-103), totaling 147,000 kW, for four onshore wind power plants*1 in the Abukuma region of Fukushima Prefecture, which were constructed and are operated by Fukushima Fukko Furyoku, LLC. The wind farm began commercial operation in April 2025.
Wind power is a clean energy source that emits no CO2 and relies on wind, an inexhaustible resource, enabling sustainable power generation. With 46 wind turbines, each approximately 148 meters tall, installed along the ridgeline of the Abukuma region, this is the largest onshore wind farm in Japan*2. The estimated annual power generation is approximately 360 million kWh (360 GWh), with an expected reduction in CO2 emissions of about 147,000 tons per year (according to our calculations). Furthermore, to ensure safety, the turbines employ technology developed to withstand Japan's severe weather conditions, including a system that uses backup batteries to rotate the turbines to a safe position during power outages caused by typhoons or other storms.
We will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of this wind farm for the next 20 years. By ensuring the stable operation of these turbines, we will contribute to achieving the government's target outlined in the Seventh Strategic Energy Plan, which aims to make renewable energy Japan's main power source and increase its share to 40–50% by 2040.
We will continue to contribute to the expansion of wind power generation in Japan and the realization of carbon neutrality.
