Starting Monday, January 19, 2026, the City of Sendai’s street tree illumination event, SENDAI Bright-Nights STORY, will be powered by FERION, an innovative metal-air battery system developed and supplied by AZUL Energy.
This initiative is part of a demonstration project for the Development of a Hybrid Metal-Air Battery System for Disaster Applications, which has been selected under the SENDAI BOSAI TECH Demonstration and Prototype Development Support Program.
By safely and reliably supplying power to the illuminations throughout the event period, AZUL Energy’s hybrid metal-air battery system will demonstrate its capability to provide long-duration, stable energy. The project highlights the system’s strong potential as a dependable power solution for emergency situations and disaster response.
