Contribution of NR-Power Lab to the expansion of the ERA market: VPP niche media has begun full-scale operations.
NR-Power Lab
NR-Power Lab has been supporting the VPP niche media "Grid Hub," which was launched at the end of last year and is set to expand its content significantly in 2025, as a primary sponsor. In addition to promoting the development of systems for existing VPP (Virtual Power Plant) services and power digital services, as well as the development of business models and demonstration projects for their social implementation, NR-Power Lab is strengthening its activities aimed at commercialization in collaboration with its two investors, NGK Insulators and Ricoh. As part of this effort, NR-Power Lab has joined the ERA Business Promotion Council as a supporting member shortly after its establishment, in agreement with the founding purpose of aiming for the healthy development of businesses utilizing renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, which are essential for achieving carbon neutrality, and DERs like batteries that are crucial for expanding their adoption. Additionally, to expand the market through increased recognition, NR-Power Lab has contributed as a sponsor to media outlets.
