Renewable Japan

What Renewable Japan does

Renewable Japan, legally known as ReENE Energy Corporation (株式会社リエネ・エナジー), is a Tokyo-headquartered renewable energy platform operating as a subsidiary of Tokyu Fudosan Holdings. Founded in 2012 and employing 251-500 staff, the company develops, owns, and operates utility-scale power generation assets across three core technologies: solar photovoltaic (太陽光発電), wind (風力発電), and hydroelectric (水力発電) generation. Beyond asset ownership, it has expanded into battery energy storage (蓄電所事業), secondary-market solar plant acquisition (太陽光発電所買取), and operates wholly-owned branded operating entities including ReENE SOLAR FARMS HIGASHIMATSUYAMA and ReENE WIND FARMS MATSUMAE.

The company's revenue model combines four streams: power generation sales to utilities and through retail operations, recurring O&M and asset management services, subscription-based retail electricity supply under the ReENE Denki (リエネでんき) brand, and transactional fees from secondary-market solar plant purchases. A proprietary remote monitoring system called mielooop (ミエルループ) supports asset performance management across the portfolio. The April 2026 launch of the Tokyu Fudosan Holdings 'Renewable Energy Procurement One-Stop Service' (再エネ調達ワンストップサービス) integrates power plant development, transfer, O&M, and retail electricity supply into a unified corporate decarbonization offering.

Customer segments split between primary enterprise and corporate customers pursuing carbon neutrality and renewable procurement, and secondary residential consumers served via the ReENE Denki retail electricity brand. All operations are concentrated in Japan, with no international footprint. Strategic capital backing has historically come from Mitsubishi UFJ Capital, Hitachi Capital Trust, Barclays Global Investors, Tokyu Land, and Kansai Electric Power, with cumulative disclosed funding exceeding $190 million between 2015 and 2020.
