Hitachi offers products and total project solutions to business partners in the areas of power generation and transmission equipment. With 100 years of experience in the power business, Hitachi strives to develop systems for electric power and environmentally-conscious recycling efforts, beginning with our power generation systems.
With energy being essential to people's lives, industry and society, Hitachi aims to contribute to the stable supply of energy and to the realization of a low-carbon society, not just in Japan but also the entire world.
Hitachi began with the production of mining equipment and hydroelectric power generation facilities. It then shifted from hydro to thermal power and subsequently entered the realm of nuclear energy. Over the years, Hitachi has contributed to the development of various power sources to meet the needs of the time. Currently, Hitachi is pursuing development in areas such as pioneering nuclear power generation, high-efficiency coal-fired thermal power and renewable power generation systems, as well as the "smart grid" and large energy storage technology by leveraging information technology aimed at optimizing power supply.
