Musashi Energy Solutions develops, manufactures and sells high-output, long-life power storage devices "lithium-ion capacitors (LIC)". LIC has long been regarded as a technology in the research and development stage, but it has been put into practical use with the progress of technology, and now it is various such as instantaneous low / short power failure compensation device, vertical transport system, overhead wire restram, fuel cell vehicle / forklift. It is used for various purposes. As corporate researchers, the four contributed to the establishment of basic principles related to LIC, the realization of commercialization of LIC, and the development of applications to general products. The Tanahashi Award was awarded in recognition of these many years of research and development activities.

Musashi Energy Solutions has succeeded in developing a large LIC by reducing the resistance of the cell. LIC, which has features such as high input / output, long life, high safety, and load fluctuation responsiveness, is being used for storage of renewable energy, and is expected to be adopted in new fields in the future.
