Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, Inc. (TEPCO) has
announced a £500,000 equity investment in Moixa Energy
Holdings, the UK's leading residential battery and platform for
managing storage services. (CEO: Simon Daniel, Headquarters:
London).
"We are excited to welcome Moixa to our modest, but growing
portfolio of innovative companies," said Hirokazu Yamaguchi,
Executive General Manager, Global Innovation & Investments at
TEPCO. "Moixa has developed a robust battery storage and smart
energy-sharing platform. We look forward to gaining hands-on
experience for the benefit of our customers."
David Thomlinson, Chairman of Moixa and former Global Head of
Energy at Accenture, said, "Having previously worked with TEPCO, I
am particularly pleased to be able to partner with this leading
Japanese corporate to bring the Moixa technology to new
markets."
The energy industry is undergoing a transformative change,
empowered by new technologies and driven by consumers. Technologies
such as distributed solar and batteries are enabling innovative new
ways of producing, consuming and sharing energy. This in turn
permits consumers to increasingly and proactively engage the energy
industry as "prosumers", who both produce and consume energy.
Moixa offers a compact and affordable smart battery for residential
customers that helps households to save money by storing spare
solar or cheap tariff electricity. In addition, their innovative
cloud-based GridShare platform helps manage and aggregate
distributed storage resources, thereby delivering grid services and
savings for the energy system.
