About Clean Energy Connect

Clean Energy Connect (CEC) specializes in developing non-FIT low voltage solar power plants, with a focus on providing renewable energy solutions to data centers. The company is currently working on a project to develop approximately 800 solar power plants in Japan by September 2026, with a total capacity of around 72MW DC and 40MW AC. One of their key clients is Google, for whom they are supplying renewable energy to a data center in Inzai City, Chiba Prefecture. CEC operates in the renewable energy market, targeting large corporations and data centers that are committed to reducing their carbon footprint. The business model revolves around long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) that ensure a stable revenue stream while contributing to environmental sustainability. By focusing on additionality, CEC ensures that their projects provide new and additional environmental benefits beyond what would have occurred without their intervention.
