Just before 7 p.m. on the 27th, an explosion occurred at the Hayashi Solar System Takayanagi Power Plant, a solar power generation facility in Oguchi Ota, Isa City, injuring four firefighters.

That is to say.
Currently, there is no smoke or fire visible from the outside of the building, but since this building is an energy storage facility and is powered by solar power, there is a risk of electric shock if water is sprayed. .
