The Kagurayama onshore wind farm, located in Japan’s Fukushima prefecture, has officially commenced commercial operations with a grid injection capacity of 61.1 MW. The project benefits from a guaranteed purchase tariff of JPY22 per kWh, certified in 2017 under the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme, ensuring a stable 20-year revenue stream. This revenue structure protects the project from market fluctuations, with estimated annual revenue of around JPY3.6bn ($25mn) based on a projected output of 165 GWh.
