Sept. 30 (Bloomberg) — Toshiba Corp., Mitsui & Co. and
partners completed a power station in central Japan that
combines solar and wind power technologies.
The Aichi prefecture plant, with 50 megawatts of solar
capacity and 6 megawatts of wind, will start operations
tomorrow, the companies said in a statement today.
Six other companies are taking part in the project,
including Toray Industries Inc.
The hybrid station can provide stable power supply by
combining the two types of renewables, the companies said.
