EV Japan's hydroelectric power generation system

EV Japan (Toyonaka City, Osaka Prefecture) will start selling small hydraulic power generation equipment that reuses automobile generators and batteries in September. Starting with the completion at the end of August of a demonstration unit consisting of a water wheel and a generator in Gojo City, Nara Prefecture, the company will begin to propose the unit to local governments and power companies as an independent and emergency power source in mountainous areas. The company manufactures and sells electric vehicles (EVs) based on engine cars, golf carts, etc., electric tractors, and EV buses developed in-house. The company intends to spread inexpensive hydroelectric power generation facilities in mountainous areas, etc., which will lead to the introduction of its own electric vehicles. In response to this trend, EV Japan aims to develop new markets such as sales and maintenance of special EVs and power generation equipment.

    Towa Electric Industry's 6-kilowatt charger for electric vehicles

    Towa Electric Industry (Kita Ward, Okayama City), in cooperation with Wako Denken (Yao City, Osaka Prefecture), has commercialized a low-cost 6-kilowatt battery charger for electric vehicles (EVs). The total price (excluding consumption tax) is about 200,000 yen if installation work is also undertaken, which is about half the cost of installing a standard 6-kilowatt charger. The battery can be recharged in 12.5 hours with Nissan's LEAF e+ EV, halving the recharging time compared to a 3-kilowatt charger. Towa Electric Industry is engaged in the maintenance of power generation facilities, telecommunications work, and electrical work for stores in Okayama and Hiroshima prefectures. "In April 2018, the company launched its first product, a light-emitting diode (LED) lighting system for large facilities such as factories, with the aim of expanding its peripheral businesses related to electricity.
