Minato Starts Operation of Solar Power Plant in Takamatsu, Kagawa Prefecture
19.04.01
Please be informed that the solar power plant, located in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture (hereinafter referred to as the “Solar Plant”), which was developed jointly by Minato Management Co., Ltd. and Asahi I&R Energy Co., Ltd. was completed on m March 29th, 2019 and put into operation on March 29th, 2019.
The Solar Plant has a power generation capacity of about 1.5 MW, and Omron Field Engineering Co., Ltd. was responsible for its engineering and construction. To carry out the Solar Plant project, non-recourse loans from financial institutions were employed, and also a fund has been set up as a joint investment project between the Asahi I&R Group and Minato Management.
The project enlisted owner’s engineering support (technological due diligence) from CO2O Inc. in the management of the engineering and construction of the Solar Plant in order to enhance its quality.
Asahi I&R plans to remain involved in this project through performing management and maintenance of the Solar Plant (O&M). In cooperation with Asahi I&R, Minato Management will manage the Solar Plant to ensure stable operations as the asset manager of the Solar Plant.
Going forward, Minato Management intends to actively expand its asset management business through making investments in the development and operation of solar power plants.
