Photovoltaic Installation on Shop Roof in Japan

A community shop in Miharu town in Fukushima prefecture named “Esperi” where solar panels were installed.
Together with a community in Fukushima, in the 5th year of the ongoing Fukushima nuclear disaster, Greenpeace launched the solar project “Solarise Fukushima” to create a solar hub, which will promote renewable energy use in Fukushima. People around Japan and the rest of the world contributed through crowd funding to install solar panels on the rooftop of the community shop, Esperi. The solar hub will be a tangible testament to the shift from nuclear to clean and reliable renewable energy. This inspiring story will help move forward solarizing not only Fukushima, but also the rest of Japan and the world.
