eMotion Fleet Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Representatives: Shuji Shiraki, Dennis Ilitsch; hereinafter "eMotion Fleet"), a company committed to the mission of "realizing economical green mobility from the field," has initiated a collaboration with Kyuhen Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukuoka, Fukuoka; President and CEO: Junichi Fujimoto; hereinafter "Kyuhen"), a manufacturer and distributor of power equipment within the Kyushu Electric Power Group, to promote the expansion of corporate electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions in the Kyushu region.

Through this partnership, the companies will strongly support the adoption of commercial EV fleets in the Kyushu area and contribute to the decarbonization of local communities.

[Background and Solutions Provided] Currently, in pursuit of carbon neutrality, demand for practical EV charging solutions is rapidly increasing among mid-sized and small enterprises and local governments in the Kyushu region.

In response, this collaboration will combine Kyuhen’s long-established, robust customer base and extensive regional network with eMotion Fleet’s commercial EV deployment and operational solutions to aggressively promote expansion within the Kyushu region.

Kyuhen, a specialized manufacturer with deep expertise in both energy infrastructure and electrical equipment manufacturing, provides high-quality EV chargers, with its technological capabilities and product reliability highly regarded in the industry. eMotion Fleet has extensive experience in advanced system integration with these products and will fully leverage this expertise to package its EV fleet management and energy management systems (FMS/EMS) with Kyuhen’s charging infrastructure for delivery.

This integration will reliably deliver two smart charging functions, enabling optimization of operational energy costs:

Peak Cut: Real-time control of charging output to prevent exceeding contracted power capacity, avoiding additional fees due to demand surges.

Peak Shift: Shifting charging to nighttime or off-peak hours—avoiding high-demand periods such as daytime with higher electricity rates—to reduce overall electricity costs.

By combining their strengths, the two companies will dramatically accelerate the electrification of businesses and local governments in Kyushu who have previously hesitated to adopt EVs due to cost or operational concerns.

[Future Outlook] Through this partnership with Kyuhen, eMotion Fleet will accelerate the adoption and operational optimization of EV charging solutions in the Kyushu region, advancing toward its mission of realizing a society where "economical green mobility is achieved from the field." The company will continue to build an environment that makes EV adoption easier for more businesses, contributing to the realization of sustainable local communities.
