Solar Power System

Solar panels from Anime Season 1.

Solar Power System (Japanese:おひさまシステム Hepburn: Ohisama Shisutemu) is a method of generating electricity that provides power for Japari Park.

Overview

The solar panels themselves appeared in the first season of the anime, but as a less important element. It is only in the Stage Play series that they are treated as an important narrative element. In the Stage Play series, solar power generation provides all the electricity for Japari Park. However, it is not clear whether other series will have the same setup.
