SoftBank Tomatoh Abira Solar Park— 111 MW Solar
Tomatoh Abira Solar Power Plant is a 111 MW solar facility located in Japan, operated by Softbank Tomatoh Abira Solar Park. This plant is part of Japan's growing solar energy sector, which is expanding rapidly to meet energy demands. It ranks as the 2nd largest solar plant in Japan, a country that has a total of 327 solar plants with a combined capacity of 5,554 MW. Tomatoh Abira represents 2% of Japan's total solar capacity. In comparison, the largest solar plant in Japan, Setouchi, has a capacity of 230 MW, making Tomatoh Abira approximately half its size. Japan operates a total of 664 power plants generating 357,453 MW. Solar energy is increasingly important in Japan's energy mix, especially following the Fukushima disaster, which has led to a push for renewable sources. The country aims to increase its solar capacity to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Tomatoh Abira is located in Hokkaido, approximately 30 km from the city of Abira.
