Japanese trading corporation Mitsui & Co has sold its interest in a 679MW portfolio of operational Canadian wind and solar to Canadian infrastructure management firm Axium. The C2C Power Wind & Solar Generation portfolio comprises 12 contracted plants across Canada with an enterprise value of CAD$1.9 billion (US$1.45 billion). Mitsui’s renewables business, MIT Renewables Inc., offloaded its stake in the portfolio through a purchase and sale agreement with a new limited partnership led by one of the portfolio's existing partners, Axium. Engie Canada Inc is also invested in the portfolio, which includes contracted plants in Ontario and British Columbia that started operations between 2007 and 2014. This transaction is expected to complete in March 2020 after regulatory approval and after honouring an agreement where existing shareholders are entitled to first refusal. In a release, the Japanese firm said that the divestment was “strategic asset recycling” and that “strengthening of the financial base continues to be one of [Mitsui & Co’s] key initiatives.” The Japanese conglomerate is invested in solar via its renewables business but also through its financial institutions. In July, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, a subsidiary of Mitsui, agreed to upsize an existing loan in Jinko Solar from JPY5.3 billion (US$49 million) arranged in 2018 to JPY6.7 billion (US$62 million). In April, Canadian Solar subsidiary, Canadian Solar Projects K.K. expanded and renewed its credit facility with a syndicate of four finance leasing institutions led by Sumitomo Mitsui (SMFL) and in the same month, Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank invested ¥14.2 billion (US$127 million) in a 36.4MW PV development by Sonnedix in Japan.

Japanese power utility JERA Co Inc has teamed up with retailer Ryohin Keikaku Co Ltd (TYO:7453), operator of the MUJI brand, to launch a new joint venture focused on solar energy development. The company, named Muji Energy LLC, will aim to deploy around 13 MW of capacity within its first year of operation. The initiative is designed to accelerate decarbonisation in Japan’s retail sector. Through JERA’s subsidiary, JERA Cross Co Inc, the environmental value generated by Muji Energy’s solar farms will be transferred to Ryohin Keikaku under a virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA). This mechanism will allow MUJI’s tenant stores to offset part of their electricity demand with renewable energy certificates, cutting reliance on fossil fuels. The 13 MW of planned capacity is expected to cover approximately 20% of Ryohin Keikaku’s annual electricity use, equating to an estimated 8,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions avoided per year. For a major Japanese retailer with a strong sustainability profile, the JV represents both a financial and environmental milestone. Ownership of the new venture is tilted in favor of the retailer: Ryohin Keikaku holds 80% of Muji Energy, while JERA retains the remaining 20%. The structure reflects the company’s intent to take direct responsibility for its energy transition, while leveraging JERA’s technical expertise in renewable project development and grid integration. The launch of Muji Energy aligns with a broader shift among Japanese corporates to adopt renewable procurement models such as VPPAs and onsite generation. It also complements JERA’s strategy to expand its renewable portfolio while supporting partners in meeting their decarbonisation commitments. With this JV, MUJI is positioning itself as a pioneer among Japanese retailers in directly linking brand operations with dedicated renewable capacity, a model likely to gain traction across the region.
