Kioxia Installs Solar Power Generation Systems at Kitakami and Yokkaichi Plants in Japan in Major New Sustainability Initiative
The solar power generation system at Fab1 of our Kitakami Plant became operational recently while the system at Fab6 of our Yokkaichi Plant will be operational in June of this year.
Kioxia Group has set the goal of sourcing 100% of its energy from renewable sources by FY2040, including solar power. We will continue to address climate change proactively and aim to develop sustainably for the benefit of society.

(To view the table, please visit https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230131006201/en/)
The systems will be operated and maintained under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) model.[2]
[1] Based on Kioxia research (as of February 1, 2023)
[2] PPA operators own the solar power generation equipment and are responsible for installation and maintenance of the system; third parties that make the necessary space available (in this case Kioxia) purchase the electricity generated at the sites from the operators.
