High-capacity portable battery system 'HPP-2000/HBB-1000'

The portable power HPP-2000 can issue certificates related to the Small and Medium-sized Enterprise Management Strengthening Act. When turning on copiers and printers or waking them from standby mode, inrush current occurs. Inrush current refers to a large current that flows momentarily, typically several times to over ten times the normal current. In the case of printers, inrush current may also occur during printing. When inrush current occurs, the power supply voltage fluctuates and becomes unstable, affecting PCs and network devices connected to the same circuit breaker. In the case of tenant buildings, the available electrical capacity is almost determined by the area of the rented space, so caution is necessary. After executing print processing, if the server suddenly stops, attention must be paid to the circuit breaker installed in the DX environment.

The off-grid power personal energy portable power HPP-2000 has received an Encouragement Award in the "Disaster Prevention Product Category" of the "Disaster Prevention and Epidemic Prevention Product Awards (R) 2021," organized by the Japan Disaster Prevention and Safety Association, due to its portability and multifunctionality. Off-grid refers to a power system that generates electricity independently without relying on the public power grid, including power sources, rectifiers, batteries, chargers, inverters, substations, and transmission functions. Because it does not depend on the public power grid, it is less susceptible to the impacts of disasters and accidents. Traditionally, it has been used in locations where public electricity is unavailable, such as mountainous areas, bridges, and ports, and in recent years, its use has expanded to high-latitude data centers of major IT companies. Off-grid systems actively utilize renewable energy to generate energy on-site, minimizing dependence on external energy supplies. Off-grid systems can be considered disaster-resistant and sustainable energy systems with low CO2 emissions.

Recently, the report from the "Study Group on the Function of Review and Payment" held by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare stated that "in the context of advancing digitalization across society, it is necessary to create an environment where medical institutions and insurers can promote online initiatives without confusion in order to enhance the overall efficiency of medical insurance operations." Currently, the digital transformation (DX) and digitalization of healthcare are progressing rapidly. It goes without saying that stable power supply is essential for the information and electronic devices that support digitalization. However, in recent years, frequent natural disasters have led to power outages and voltage fluctuations, resulting in ongoing power supply troubles. The recovery time from power outages has become longer compared to traditional outages, and the number of outages lasting more than five minutes has been increasing year by year. To prepare for long power outages of more than five minutes, which often lead to power restoration accidents, there is a need for off-grid power supplies that can protect medical information systems from power outages and operate stably even when the power from utility companies is cut off. Against this backdrop, our company will begin selling off-grid power supplies to protect medical information systems from power supply risks due to the DX and digitalization of healthcare starting October 1. *Off-grid is a registered trademark of Keikou Communication Technology Co., Ltd.
