CHUZHOU, China, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — [Trina Storage](https://www.trinasolar.com/en-apac/elementa-series/),
the energy storage business unit of Trinasolar, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding(
MoU) with [AMP-lify](https://www.amp-lify.co.jp/), a Japanese clean energy platform,
to supply approximately 1 GWh of grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS)
equipment for AMP-lify’s projects. AMP-lify develops, constructs and operates grid-
connected BESS, utility-scale solar, and onshore wind projects across Japan.

cooperation MoU covering approximately 1 GWh of grid-connected BESS projects in 
Japan, held in Chuzhou, China

Under the MoU, Trina Storage will supply its [Elementa 3 series BESS](https://www.trinasolar.com/en-apac/elementa3/)
and provide related technical support for approximately 1 GWh of AMP-lify’s BESS
projects. Trina Storage’s Japan team will support system configuration, technical
consultation, delivery coordination and after-sales service.

Trina Storage’s Elementa 3 is equipped with Trina Storage in-house 587Ah high-capacity
cell, providing up to 6.25 MWh per container for larger utility-scale sites. For
projects affected by transport access, limited land or proximity to communities,
the 1.56 MWh Elementa 3 Flex offers an approximately five-square-metre footprint,
a weight of about 13 tonnes for standard-truck transport, operating noise of 65 
dB or less and modular expansion.

Japan’s Seventh Strategic Energy Plan projects renewable energy at approximately
40–50% of power generation in fiscal year 2040 and calls for storage batteries to
help balance renewable output. As variable renewable generation increases, developers
need storage projects that combine appropriate system design with local execution
and long-term support. Trina Storage’s BESS technology and Japan-based support are
backed by its recognition as a BloombergNEF Tier 1 energy storage supplier for 11
consecutive quarters.

"Japan’s storage market needs projects that are technically sound and executable
under local conditions. Working with Trina Storage’s technology and local support
gives us a strong basis to move the projects from site evaluation through construction
and into reliable operation," said Martin Stein, Representative Director and CEO
of AMP-lify.

"Japan’s storage market has distinct engineering and delivery requirements. Road
weight limits and narrow site access affect transport, while mountainous terrain,
limited land, community noise expectations, seismic design and coastal conditions
influence system configuration. This MoU allows us to address those factors with
AMP-lify from the earliest stages of development. By combining its local execution
capabilities with our Elementa 3 portfolio and Japan-based technical support, we
can configure each project around its site requirements while building toward the
scale envisaged under this cooperation," said Dr Leo Zhao, Head of Energy Storage,
Trinasolar Asia Pacific.
