Features of HESTA Solar

Compared to conventional glass panels, these solar panels are up to 80% lighter, only 3 millimeters thick, can be installed in a bent state, and can be attached to walls. The lightweight design reduces the load on the building during earthquakes when installed on residential rooftops, maintaining seismic resistance. They can also be installed on curved carport roofs. Installation without drilling protects the asset value of the building. Furthermore, thorough quality control and product inspections provide a 25-year warranty.

Leveraging these features, it is also possible to install them over existing deteriorated panels, making replacement (repowering) easy. In Japan, a country with limited land and energy challenges, the widespread adoption of solar power generation in urban areas is an urgent issue to promote global warming prevention. HESTA Solar, which can be installed in various locations, has seen expanding inquiries in urban areas, including Tokyo, since its sales began in 2024. It is gaining attention as a system that can suppress soaring electricity costs and be used as an emergency power source during disasters.

Furthermore, HESTA Solar has been certified as a functional PV by Cool-Net Tokyo as a solar power generation system with excellent functionality.

*An additional subsidy of 80,000 yen/kW is available for specified roof materials and installation.

About HESTA Okura

Since its founding in 1962, HESTA Okura has been involved in creating homes for over 120,000 households through new town development, sales of detached and custom-built homes, and construction/renovation businesses.

In April 2023, the company name was changed to "HESTA Okura," and with the corporate concept of "From creating homes centered around houses, to creating lifestyles and communities," it promotes the evolution of living beyond just providing housing.

As part of these initiatives, the lifestyle platform "HESTA LIFE" disseminates excellent products, culture, and regional attractions from across Japan, and through its e-commerce business, connects consumers both domestically and internationally with Japanese producers and businesses. In recent years, the energy business has been positioned as one of its key strategies, and in 2024, the company began selling and installing "HESTA Solar," a next-generation solar panel characterized by being "light, thin, bendable, and attachable." As it can be installed on buildings and walls where conventional solar power generation systems have been difficult to install, it is being adopted primarily by school facilities and corporate facilities, contributing to the expansion of renewable energy. Furthermore, the company continues to grow as a corporate group that comprehensively supports people's lives by developing a wide range of businesses, including digital signage, resort hotels, condominium management, real estate, and medical/healthcare.

"HESTA" originates from "Hestia," the Greek goddess of hearth and home, and embodies the desire "to be a presence that protects and supports people's lives."

HESTA Okura will continue to contribute to the realization of a sustainable and prosperous future by transmitting Japan's excellent products, technologies, and culture to the world as a company connecting housing, energy, health, and lifestyles.
