Tokyo-based
Shizen
Energy,
completed
and

a
1MW

on
Kyushu
Island
last
month.

Juwi
Shizen
Energy,
the
new
company
has
a
project
pipeline
of
120MW
for
this
year
and
plans
to
install
1GW
of
wind
and
solar
projects
by
2017,
according
to
Juwi.
It
will
offer
project
development,
EPC
services,
operation
and
maintenance,
and
project
financing
for
both
solar

wind
energy.
However,
it
is
likely
to
focus
initially
on
solar
projects,
including
both
ground-mount
