Kyocera Communication Systems Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fushimi-ku, Kyoto, Representative Director and President: Tatsuya Kawaguchi, hereinafter KCCS) will begin the introduction and construction of the next-generation technology "Film-Type Perovskite Solar Cells" to expand the adoption of renewable energy.
The company announced that it has received introduction commission projects from Shiga Prefecture and Fukuoka City in Fukuoka Prefecture, and will start installation work at each facility from June 8, 2026.
In recent years, while the introduction of renewable energy has accelerated toward the realization of a decarbonized society, a shortage of suitable land and locations for installing solar power generation facilities has become an issue. The "Film-Type Perovskite Solar Cell" is attracting attention as a solution to this problem. Because it is lightweight and flexible, it can be installed in facilities where conventional silicon-based solar panels have been difficult to install due to load-bearing limitations, and is expected to be a new solution for realizing a sustainable society.
As a member of the Kyocera Group, KCCS is strengthening its efforts in the field of next-generation solar cells by leveraging its extensive track record and unique technical capabilities in the solar power generation business cultivated over many years.
In the projects to be started this time, film-type perovskite solar cells manufactured by Sekisui Solar Film Co., Ltd. will be installed at three prefectural facilities in Shiga Prefecture (including the gymnasium of Yawata Industrial High School) and three municipal facilities in Fukuoka City (including the gymnasium of Takamiya Junior High School). KCCS's comprehensive ability to provide one-stop services from solar power generation equipment design to material procurement, construction work, and maintenance, as well as its construction capability to handle new technologies, were recognized, leading to this order.
This project is based on Shiga Prefecture and Fukuoka City being selected for the Ministry of the Environment's "Subsidy for Measures to Promote the Transition to a Decarbonized Growth-Oriented Economic Structure (Introduction Support Project for Creating Social Implementation Models of Perovskite Solar Cells)."
KCCS will continue to aim for the widespread adoption of clean energy and the realization of a decarbonized society, and will contribute to the creation of a sustainable future by providing consistent services from the installation to operation and maintenance of next-generation solar cells.
