Utilization of industrial storage batteries for power outages and BCP measures for servers and communication equipment.

basic information

▼Measures Against Power Outages for Important Equipment Such as Servers Government agencies and businesses need to ensure continuity of operations and prompt recovery in the event of emergencies such as natural disasters. BCP (Business Continuity Planning) measures are crucial for corporate risk management. When communication equipment becomes unusable due to a power outage, communication with the outside world is interrupted. Additionally, if the servers that manage business data on computers and the web become unavailable during a power outage, there is a risk of data corruption or loss, equipment failure, and issues related to system management. Therefore, measures against power outages for important equipment such as servers and communication devices are essential. ▼Important BCP Measures for Companies In recent years, there have been instances where companies and businesses have been unable to maintain basic functions due to increasing natural disasters. This not only leads to economic losses but also negatively impacts the brand image of companies. By storing electricity in batteries, it is possible to secure a power source in emergencies. The introduction of a storage battery system leads to power supply assurance during outages and facilitates prompt recovery of business operations.

▼Securing Power During Outages / Backup Power Measures One of the major issues during disasters is the interruption of power supply. When formulating a BCP (Business Continuity Plan), it is necessary to consider securing power during emergencies. ▼Securing Power is the First Step in BCP Measures Immediately after a disaster, there may be isolation due to road disruptions and shortages of supplies caused by disruptions in distribution. Given this context, securing emergency power that can handle prolonged outages is emphasized. ▼BCP Measures for Early Resumption of Business When a disaster causes damage, recovery takes a certain amount of time. By securing emergency power with batteries, businesses can continue their operations. ▼No Fuel Required Batteries can operate without fuel and do not require the extensive maintenance associated with large emergency generators, making them easier to implement. Since no fuel is needed, this contributes to decarbonization. ▼Securing Power is the Most Important Issue to Address This is essential for continuing business during emergencies and preventing the loss of customer transaction opportunities or damage to the company's reputation. Among these, preparing for power outages can be considered part of BCP measures. ▼Implementation Image - Government agencies - Businesses / Offices - Call centers

  ●Important BCP Measures for Companies BCP (Business Continuity Plan) is required to prevent activities from coming to a standstill during a disaster. Securing power supply during emergencies is extremely important. It provides a sense of "safety and security" in case of unexpected power outages, and also contributes to external "credibility and trust." In recent years, there have been numerous cases where basic functions could not be maintained due to the increase in natural disasters. This not only leads to economic losses but also negatively impacts the brand image of companies. The introduction of energy storage systems can secure power supply during outages and facilitate the rapid recovery of business operations.

• 

  ●Ensuring Power Supply is the First Step in BCP Measures In emergencies, companies are required to prepare to continue essential operations. To swiftly implement a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) during a disaster, it is necessary to secure at least the minimum infrastructure. Among these, ensuring power supply during long outages is emphasized as crucial. As a "key" in formulating a Business Continuity Plan, the combination of renewable energy facilities and industrial storage batteries is highly effective as "disaster countermeasures." Even if a power outage lasts for an extended period, it becomes possible to respond with self-generated power and storage batteries until recovery.

• 

  One of the backup power supply systems that can be used safely is a storage battery. More and more companies are introducing storage batteries as emergency power sources to protect data server information and secure communication methods in case of a power outage. By storing electricity in a battery, you can ensure a power supply in emergencies. As a BCP measure, why not consider introducing storage batteries to further reduce regular costs?

• 

  ●Ensuring power supply is the most important issue to address When companies are affected by natural disasters and other events, it is essential to have a pre-established plan for business continuity and early recovery, known as BCP measures. These measures are designed to ensure that business operations can continue during emergencies, preventing the loss of customer transactions and the company's reputation. Among these, preparing for power outages is an integral part of BCP measures. Power outages can occur unexpectedly due to natural disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons, or failures in power plants and transmission networks. Considering the risk of power loss during normal times can help minimize the negative impact on business during emergencies. For this reason, there has been an increase in the installation of storage batteries as emergency backup power sources.

• 

  ● Risks of Power Outages in Businesses and Offices When a power outage occurs due to disasters or other reasons, almost all operations come to a halt without electricity, including servers, networks, and computers. From the perspective of Business Continuity Planning (BCP), it is crucial to maintain communication channels with the outside world. If information gathering is hindered and initial responses are delayed, it becomes difficult to confirm the safety of employees, assess damage, provide instructions for action, and contact business partners, making it challenging to restore business operations quickly and maintain trust with partners and customers.

• 

  Securing communication means is important. Since the Great East Japan Earthquake, it has become widely recognized that "communication" is crucial as one of the lifelines. With large-scale natural disasters occurring frequently, the importance of charging mobile phones and smartphones, which are necessary for confirming safety and obtaining information, has been acknowledged. As a result, the importance of "preparation for power outages" has increased. Additionally, the use of storage batteries by companies to secure power supply is gaining attention.

  ●Potential Issues from Power Outages (for Businesses and Offices) ▷Inability to Use Electronic Devices In the event of a power outage, all electronic devices in use will become unusable. Additionally, sudden power outages may cause unexpected malfunctions or failures in equipment. ▷Inability to Assess Current Situation Due to the power outage, communication devices (internet phones, smartphones/charging) will become unusable, making it impossible to confirm the safety of employees and assess the status of personnel. ▷Health Risks from Air Conditioning Shutdown If air conditioning systems become unusable due to a power outage, there is an increased risk of heat-related illnesses during the summer, which can pose health and environmental risks for employees. It is essential to secure power for air conditioning and ventilation. ▷Inability to Charge Smartphones/Cell Phones In the event of a disaster that makes returning home difficult, smartphones and cell phones are indispensable means for employees to contact their families.

• 

  ●BCP measures in IT systems In today's business environment, IT systems play a significant role, and if a power outage causes the system to stop, it can severely disrupt business continuity. Loss of business opportunities and the potential loss of necessary data can result in significant losses for companies, jeopardizing not only their ability to continue operations but even their very existence. Given this background, it is essential to develop a BCP to prevent activities from coming to a standstill during a disaster. ●Disasters and accidents that impact corporate management ▷Frequent earthquakes, typhoons, and flooding ▷Severe failures in critical systems ▷System shutdowns due to computer viruses ▷Risk of infectious diseases (pandemics) ▷Increased threat of terrorism

• 

  ● The increasing social demands on corporate compliance, CSR, etc. ▷ The demand for securing trust from stakeholders such as local communities, employees, shareholders, and business partners. - Contribution to the local community during disasters There is a growing expectation from local communities for companies to open their facilities and provide support in terms of relief supplies during disasters. Alongside their own BCP (Business Continuity Plan) initiatives, more companies are considering contributions to the entire region and implementing DCP (District Continuity Plan) measures. For companies with strong ties to the community, active engagement in CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) activities, such as "contribution to the local community," is becoming more common, and participation in and response to local continuity plans is considered part of the company's BCP measures.
