“Japan has set ambitious targets for its energy transition strategy, up to 38% of its energy mix coming from renewable energy by the end of 2030, and the Kasama so-lar project is another step towards realising that goal. We look forward to delivering this project to the host communities in Ibaraki Prefecture,” said Raul Rienda, Head of Vena Energy Japan.
“Vena Energy has been one of the pioneers of the solar, wind and, more recent-ly, energy storage sectors in Japan, and a protagonist of the ongoing Japanese energy transition,” added Simone Grasso, Chief Investment Officer of Vena Energy. “As we continue to expand our operations and capital investments in the country, we would like to thank Mitsubishi UFJ Bank and Joyo Bank for their support in financing the Kasama project, and our host communities in Ibaraki Prefecture for their continued trust in our local operations and activities.”
