Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Vestas Wind Systems recently announced that their joint venture “MHI Vestas Japan Co., Ltd.” has commenced operations.
Specifically, under their collaboration, partners aim to strengthen the field of renewable energies and mainly wind turbines.
With the Japanese Government calling for offshore wind energy to become a major source of power by 2050, the new JV will take charge of marketing onshore and offshore wind turbines in the region.

As further explained, the MHI Vestas Japan’s head office is located in Chiyoda-ku, in central Tokyo.
“In the wake of the Paris Agreement, global warming and climate change have become universally acknowledged issues that critically impact all humanity, ushering in a period calling for vast social changes. Against this backdrop, the global market for wind energy systems is expected to double over the next 10 years.”
…MHI said.
Following the establishment of MHI Vestas Japan, MHI and Vestas look to build further on the technologies, experience and trust established through the operations of MHI Vestas Offshore Wind.
At the same time, both sides goal to boost use of onshore and offshore wind power and accelerate global-scale initiatives toward decarbonization.
