Kansai Electric Power and Power Ledger extend cooperation
Australia’s Power Ledger and Japan’s KEPCO have decided to continue their cooperation started by the last-year Osaka project. According to the new agreement, Kansai Electric will produce and manage credits obtained from roof-mount PV plants, using the blockchain-based technology developed by Power Ledger.
Any power retailer is awarded with a renewable energy certificate for the electrical power injected to electric grid from solar installations. During the new stage of partnership, PL’s blockchain technology will be used to guarantee transactions are promptly recorded and each REC has been used only once.
The fresh deal is meant to extend the successful testing of ptp energy trading in Osaka. Since Japanese FIT scheme is no longer valid, the companies are going to seek alternative ways to profit from rooftop solar systems.
The initial phase of the project has shown that the energy provided to communities can be more affordable and can help them compensate the energy costs. At the same time, electricity consumers may sell the excess power by using the peer-to-peer platform. The new phase is slated to begin before the turn of the year. The first results are expected in early spring of 2020.
The Australian tech startup is currently operating in Australia, US, Thailand and Japan. In November, the company started its first large-scale project in Australia. The venture will allow SA inhabitants to use their PV and storage as virtual power plants and give them access to wholesale power prices.

Australia’s green bank will prioritise storage and grid stability in FY20
Australia’s state-run renewable energy financier, Clean Energy Finance Corp (CEFC) will shift gears over the next 12 months to prioritise investments in grid stability and large-scale energy storage, according to its latest funding update.
CEFC CEO Ian Learmonth said that the federal green fund's investments will “increasingly target new technologies where there is less appetite from mainstream investors – including pumped storage and large-scale batteries, behind-the-meter generation and grid solutions.”
An investment update released Tuesday revealed that the CEFC invested A$1.5 billion (US$1.03 billion) throughout the 2019 financial year, roughly A$800 million (US$550 million) less than in 2018.
Learmonth said that the "expected" drop reflected grid and transmission constraints as well as broader market conditions, including Australia meeting its 2020 renewable energy target.
Two CEFC records were broken during the 2019 financial year, which runs from July to July in Australia. More money went to the clean energy sector than ever before, at $1.3 billion (US$893 million). A record-breaking total of A$320 million (US$220 million) of financing was repaid to the state-run green bank over the financial year – testament, according to Learmonth, of the CEFC's "ability to earn a positive return on our investments and reinvest our finance on behalf of the Australian community."
Of the A$5 billion (US$3.4 billion) that spent by the CEFC since 2012, $560 million (US$385 million) has been repaid.
