2014/11/10 2

U-shaped

Kelcima

Kyocera was established in 1959 as a small suburban

workshop where 28 young colleagues pursued big

dreams. Our first product was a U-shaped ceramic

insulator (known as a Kelcima) for use within early

television picture tubes.

Today, Kyocera is a highly diversified global enterprise.

We pursue boundless dreams by accepting the

challenges that others prefer to avoid.

We believe that a strong will can make dreams come

true, and that limitless effort can overcome any obstacle.

These beliefs from Kyocera’s history remain the driving

force behind our growth.

We aim to become a creative company that grows

continuously throughout the future. Kyocera Group

employees around the world who have adopted this

pioneering spirit personify our path to growth.

We started with only this ー a small ceramic insulator.

2014/11/10 3

Preserve the spirit to work fairly and honorably,

respecting people, our work, our company

and our global community.

When long-lasting,high-capacity lithium-ionbattery storage units are usedin conjunction with solar powergenerating systems and homeenergy management systems(HEMS), they can help providea more stable supply ofelectricity, while acting as anemergency power sourceduring power outages.

Lithium-Ion Power Storage EnhancesSolar Power Generating Systems

In high-voltage stress testing by Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft (Germany), Kyocera’s solar modules showed no decline in output after being subjected to severe testing conditions.

A project has recently been completed in Thailand to construct and operate 35 large-scale solar power generating systems totaling 257MW — like this 7.5MW installation in the Korat region.

Telecommunications

Equipment

Our Smart Sonic Receiver® transmits sound

through both sound waves and vibrations.

The whole display vibrates to clearly transmit sound from

the other party using both sound waves and vibration.

There is no receiver speaker, so communication is possible

regardless of the phone’s position relative to the ear.

Furthermore, if the ear is covered with the screen, it is

possible to block ambient noise while communicating —

making it easier to hear the other party even in noisy

environments, such as a train platform or crowded store.

Communication is possible without placingthe phone directly to the ear.

Smart Sonic ReceiverConventional smartphone

Conversations can be easily

heard, even in noisy

environments.

Receiver speakerNo receiver speaker

Kyocera’s Smart Sonic Receiver

makes it possible to block out noise

from the surrounding environment

by covering the ear with the screen

of the device. This makes it easier

to hear the phone even in noisy

environments such as construction

sites, sporting events and concerts.

Replacing the traditional speaker

with a Kyocera ceramic actuator

turns the phone’s entire display

into a transmitter, enabling users to

hear simply by putting any part of the

phone’s display in contact with the

general area around the ear.

Note: Ease of hearing varies between

individuals, and varies depending

on surrounding conditions.

70MW Kagoshima Nanatsujima Mega Solar Power Plant

Kyocera’s Home Energy

Management System (HEMS)By combining our strengths in energy creation technologies

(including solar power and SOFC systems) and

communications technology, we have developed an original

Home Energy Management System that efficiently controls

energy supply and consumption. Electric power is optimally

controlled by linking solar power, an SOFC system and power

storage batteries with the commercial power grid. Electricity

use can be monitored via computers or smartphones to enable

even greater usage efficiency.

Energy Management System (EMS) for Commercial FacilitiesKyocera collected electric power consumption data from commercial facilities such as convenience store chains. Analysis of that data led to an EMS for commercial facilities to improve efficiency in power consumption.

Utility-Scale Solar Power PlantsHigher levels of system design, construction technology and long-term reliability areparticularly important in solar power generating systems for public and industrial applications, including large-scale solar power plants. The Kyocera Group provides comprehensive service — everything from material s to solar module production, system design, procurement, construction work and maintenance. We have been selected to supply numerous utility-scale solar power worldwide. We are also extending our energy-related business, starting with the construction and operation of the 70MW KagoshimaNanatsujima Mega Solar Power Plant, one of the largest of its kind in Japan.

Power Storage SystemsKyocera markets power storage systems with

superior durability using high-capacity lithium ion

batteries. By connecting to power-generation

equipment, such as solar power generating

systems, these power storage units can optimize

electrical power consumption and provide

emergency power backup during blackouts or

outages.

Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs)A fuel cell uses hydrogen from sources such as

utility gas and causes it to react with the

oxygen in the air to generate electricity and

heat. Kyocera began developing materials

for SOFCs in the 1980s.Our ceramic cell

stack, which forms the core of a fuel cell

system, was commercially launched in 2011.

SOFC systems containing these stacks are now

available in Japan.

LED LightingKyocera’s high-efficiency LED lighting produces light similar to sunlight. Because it creates a comfortableenvironment with gentle, natural illumination, it is being adopted in applications ranging from industry and commercial facilities to hospitals and artgalleries.

Solar PowerKyocera began research and

development into photovoltaic cells in

1975. Not long after, we became the

first company to succeed in mass

producing multicrystalline silicon solar

cells using the casting method, now the industry standard. In

1993, Kyocera was the first company in Japan to

commercialize solar power generating systems for residential

use, an application we have worked to expand ever since.

Kyocera‘s Corporate SocialResponsibility (CSR) Activities

The Kyocera Philosophy is our foundationShortly after its founding, Kyocera adopted its management

rationale: “To provide opportunities for the material and intellectual

growth of all our employees, and through our joint efforts,

contribute to the advancement of society and humankind.”

Management is based on the Kyocera Philosophy, which uses the

concept “What is the right thing to do as a human being?” as its

decision-making criterion. This also forms the basis for the

Kyocera Group’s CSR activities.

Through implementation of the Kyocera Philosophy, we work to

find solutions to corporate citizenship issues, build relationships of

mutual trust with our stakeholders, and aim for the sustained

development of the Kyocera Group. At the same time, we

endeavor to contribute to the healthy development of society.

Corporate Citizenship The joy we feel in giving back to society as a responsible corporate

citizen brings Kyocera’s founding philosophy to life.

Japan’s non-profit Inamori Foundation was

established in the spirit of Kyocera founder

Kazuo Inamori’s belief that “our highest

calling as human beings is to work for the

greater good of society and humankind.” In

1985, the Foundation established the

Kyoto Prize, an international award

presented in the three categories of

Advanced Technology, Basic Sciences,

and Arts and Philosophy. It is awarded to

persons who have made significant

contributions to the scientific, cultural and

spiritual betterment of mankind.

Kyocera ascribes to and supports the

goals of the Prize.
