Contributing to safe and efficient energy use and the achievement of decarbonization
The energy market is seeing increased consumption due to rising power demand from AI data centers, economic growth in emerging countries, and greater cooling needs driven by rising temperatures. To meet this demand while building a sustainable society, it will be essential to use energy efficiently and introduce renewable energy.
Hioki’s measuring instruments facilitate performance improvements and stable operation of energy infrastructure. In addition, they underpin solutions that accelerate adoption of renewable energy and thereby contribute to the realization of the decarbonized society of the future.
Solar Power Systems
With the growing need to realize a decarbonized society, demand for solar power generation continues to rise. Solar systems are moving toward higher voltages to scale up systems and achieve more efficient power generation.
Hioki’s high-voltage insulation testers can accurately measure insulation resistance up to DC 2000 V without being affected by ongoing power generation. These field instruments support the maintenance and inspection of solar power facilities by enabling safe inspection of high-voltage systems.

Power Conditioner
Power conditioners convert the direct current generated by solar panels into alternating current, and the inevitable energy loss during this conversion makes it critical to minimize losses and maximize conversion efficiency.
Hioki’s power analyzers measure conversion efficiency with a high level of accuracy, helping achieve more efficient energy use.
Main products
Energy Storage System
As adoption of renewable energy becomes more widespread, demand is also growing for energy storage systems (ESS), which balance electricity supply and demand.
Hioki’s measuring instruments are used in system performance evaluation, battery degradation diagnostics, and other maintenance tasks, supporting the stable operation of these systems.
Main products
Water Electrolysis Systems
Water electrolysis systems use electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. As society moves toward sustainability, hydrogen, which is used in fuel cells and other applications, is attracting attention as a key alternative energy source. By providing solutions that implement impedance measurement of hydrogen generation devices, Hioki is helping improving device performance and facilitating research into optimal operating conditions for water electrolysis systems.
