Kyocera Corporation has announced that the company will provide about solar modules capable of generating about 13MW of renewable power for the Ohgishima Solar Power Plant Mega Solar System, one of Japan’s largest solar installation planned by Tokyo Electric Power Company.
Scheduled to be completed by 2011, the installation will provide green electricity to about 3800 homes and prevent the emission of about 5800 tons of CO2 annually. The solar modules will be installed on a 57-acre site on an artificial island just outside of Tokyo Bay.
