As of Q2 2025, Blueleaf Energy’s joint venture with Univergy, Hinode Energy, had 48.5 MWp and 24 MWh of solar and energy storage renewables projects in the early stages of development in Japan.

In 2021, Blueleaf Energy and Univergy International formed a joint venture (JV) company, Hinode Energy, to serve one of the world’s largest sola markets, Japan. Headquartered in Tokyo, Hinode Energy is delivering high-quality, cost-effective solar energy projects that contribute to Japan’s decarbonization goals.

Hinode brings together Univergy’s local insights and experience developing over one GW of solar in Japan since 2012, with Blueleaf Energy’s engineering expertise and financial capability. By 2024, in addition to its growing pipeline of solar, Hinode had expanded into providing battery energy storage systems (BESS).
