Transmission And Distribution Systems

Transmission And Distribution Systems

Green Energy & Mobility

There is a trend in the transmission and distribution of electric power toward the use of larger-scale systems, to cope with large power plants and to reduce transmission losses through the use of high transmission line voltages. Hitachi has extensive experience in this field through its supply of highly reliable transformers, switchgear, and other products throughout the world. Hitachi has also been working in recent years on smart grids that supply electric power reliably and without waste, and that combine conventional power plants with sources such as wind and photovoltaic power generation for which output levels are difficult to control.
