TRENDE Inc., a leading renewable energy solutions provider in Japan, has announced a strategic capital and business alliance with Tokyu Land Corporation, one of Japan’s leading real estate developers. The partnership is aimed at accelerating distributed renewable energy adoption and peer-to-peer (P2P) electricity trading across the real estate sector.

As part of TRENDE’s Series C extension round closed on 19 March 2025, Tokyu Land Corporation has joined as a new shareholder. The investment reaffirms Tokyu Land’s commitment to integrating sustainable energy solutions across its property developments.

Through this alliance, the two companies will pursue joint initiatives including the strategic operation of solar and battery-powered generation systems to improve grid flexibility and resilience. Another key focus is the development and social implementation of P2P electricity trading platforms, enabling property owners and residents to directly trade renewable energy—enhancing asset value and promoting self-sufficiency.

The collaboration will leverage Tokyu Land’s renewable energy brand "ReENE" and real estate portfolio alongside TRENDE’s expertise in digital platforms and P2P energy trading.

Tadatoshi Senoo, President, TRENDE Inc., said: “This partnership is a pivotal step toward building a society that actively utilises renewable energy. By combining our technological and real estate strengths, we aim to unlock new value for communities and property owners.”

The alliance marks a key milestone in advancing Japan’s transition to decentralised, digitally enabled, and community-driven renewable energy systems.
