Hitachi Energy supplies transformers and other grid and power equipment, and develops power infrastructure for AI data centers, including on-site energy parks and 800 V DC systems.

Positioning

Hitachi Energy is a Switzerland-headquartered, wholly owned Hitachi subsidiary supplying high-voltage equipment, transformers, HVDC systems, grid automation and power-electronics infrastructure into utilities, industrial customers and AI data-center projects. Its FY2025 Hitachi Energy revenue reached USD 19.8 billion, while its order backlog was reported at USD 43 billion at FY2024-end and approximately USD 57.9 billion at FY2025-end; recent activity includes AWS and NVIDIA collaborations, major U.S., European, Indian and Turkish manufacturing expansions, and a USD 528 million Mississippi transformer plant announced for September 2026. The distinguishing point is chokepoint control in transformers and grid equipment, although new capacity remains several years away and factory expansion is constrained by long equipment lead times.
