Digital Grid Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President CEO: Yusuke Toyoda; hereinafter 'the Company') is pleased to announce that its handling capacity for grid-scale batteries exceeded a total of 100MW in April 2026.
The Company provides an aggregation service that coordinates and operates multiple grid-scale batteries in collaboration with operators who own them. Amid the rapid installation of grid-scale batteries driven by the growing demand for a decarbonized society, this milestone was achieved approximately one year and four months after the start of this service.
In addition to the aggregation service (consignment operation), the Company will invest 10 billion yen over the three years leading up to July 2028 in its own grid-scale batteries, making it one of the core pillars of the Group's business.
