ORIX Digitizes Solar Farms Across Japan

Leveraging Univers’ end-to-end solution for predictive maintenance, real-time monitoring, and optimized power generation across 82 sites.

About ORIX

Japan’s largest solar asset manager transforms solar asset productivity. ORIX Renewable Energy Management Corporation (OREM) is the subsidiary of ORIX Corporation (ORIX), a diversified financial services group headquartered in Japan. OREM runs the operation, management, and maintenance of power plants that use renewable energies such as solar power.

Challenges

With 1 GW of solar energy assets, including utility-scale, commercial and industrial, ORIX is the largest solar asset manager in Japan. It also develops and operates its own rapidly growing fleet of solar farms that currently generate 702 MWp in utility, including Niigata Yotsugoya Power Plant (55.6 MWp), Shiriuchi Mega Solar 20M Power Plant (24 MWp), and Hirono-Cho Mega Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Plant (24.3 MWp). ORIX’s OR Yamaguchi Mine Solar Power Plant (56.4 MWp) is scheduled to commence operations in October 2021.

To contribute to Japan’s national goal of increasing its renewables mix to 24% by 2030, OREM wanted to implement innovative technology that can further increase the productivity of its solar assets.

Outcomes

Univers provided EnOS™ Cloud with Advanced Analytics for Solar and Monitoring for Solar to OREM’s utility-scale solar farms across 82 sites in Japan.

Predictive Maintenance

Advanced Analytics algorithms detect anomalies and predict system underperformance, allowing OREM to take smart remedial actions and preemptively maintain the long-term efficiency and health of its PV assets.

Optimized Power Generation

OREM’s operations and maintenance (O&M) teams could gain a 360-degree view into OREM diverse portfolio of distributed assets, improving visualization of power generation conditions and optimizing production capacity.

Real-Time Remote Monitoring

Monitoring for Solar enables real-time remote monitoring of OREM’s PV sites, helping O&M teams respond quickly to malfunctions, reducing downtime, and maximizing power generation.

“With Univers' end-to-end solution and expertise, ORIX Renewable Energy Management can provide total customer support – from proposals to implementation to maintenance, which in turn helps our customers optimize energy use and reduce costs.”
