The Power Generation and Transmission
(Generate and Transmit) display introduces
Hitachi's ideas about energy and the solutions
it has developed to actualize them.
Renewable energy is a major means of achieving carbon neutrality.
The wind power generation systems that play a leading role in this are
geographically dispersed.
This means that there is a need for efficient transmission of electricity
from power generation areas to consumption areas.
HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current transmission systems) HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current transmission systems)
HVDC transmits clean energy from remote wind farm to demand
center over long distances with low losses.

Alternating Current (AC) Power Transmission
Since AC voltage can be easily changed, it is widely
applied to long-distance ultra-high voltage
overhead line transmission, low-voltage
distribution and household power supply.
Direct Current (DC) Power Transmission
DC is applied to cable transmission, where AC
would incur significant losses, and to much longer
distance transmission with low losses.
Frequency
It can also interconnect different frequency grids, allowing energy
interchange between the eastern and western Japan grids.
BLADE TOTAL SERVICE
Based on the inspection data of blades collected
by drones and AI, we provide a one-stop services
for maintenance planning and for repairing
damaged or deteriorated parts.

For this reason, a large,
stable supply of clean energy is required 24 hours a day,

NUCLEAR ENERGY
Nuclear energy is known as a large baseload power source.
It is also attracting attention because it can coexist with
renewable energy and contribute to a stable supply of
electricity.
HI-ABWR
Innovative Light-Water Reactor BWRX-300
Small Modular Reactor
It does not emit CO2 during generation,
allowing it to support power demand from
multiple data centers, etc.
HYDROGEN ENERGY
For hydrogen, the next-generation in clean
energy, we are developing a hydrogen value
chain that links the fields of production, storage,
transport, and use, with the aim of early
implementation.

Hitachi will continue to contribute to the stable supply of electricity with
our expertise in OT, IT, and products, and various energy solutions
utilizing digital technologies.
We must optimize power demand balance and offer
stable power to fully utilize renewable energy to be
carbon neutral by 2050.

Supplied power can be adjusted with battery energy storage systems
based on output fluctuations due to weather with renewable energy.
GRID-SCALE BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
Matsuyama Mikan Energy LLC was jointly
established by Shikoku Electric Power Company,
Incorporated and CHC Japan K.K.,
to develop and operate a grid-scale battery energy storage system,
which is under construction to stabilize power supply and
demand and maximize the use of renewable energy.

enhanced-STATCOM
Hitachi has added a synthetic inertia response to traditional Static
Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) to create Enhanced-STATCOM,
contributing to low-inertia grid stabilization and grid stabilization in
large-scale renewable energy interconnections.

Multi-site energy management service
Hitachi's multi-site energy management service can predict weather
changes during the day by AI. It develops accurate plan of energy
supply and demand by revising the plan every 30 minutes.
When the amount of renewable energy supply declines, that of
energy from commercial power sources or other on-site in-house
power generation will increase.
b_box07img01
In addition, we will realize effective use of renewable energy by
the technologies of energy supply and demand prediction, and of
electricity wheeled management.

Battery Degradation Diagnosis Technologies PV Fault Diagnosis Technologies
As a pilot project, Hitachi began operating a system that will transmit part
of the excess electricity generated by a solar power plant installed at the
company's R&D facility in Hatoyama, Saitama Prefecture to a research
facility in Kokubunji, Tokyo in March 2024.

Through this system, we are implementing plans to reduce CO2
emissions at the Kokubunji site by 75% by FY2030.

energy-saving equipment, etc.
*2 News release from October 8,2021: "Hitachi Begins Operation of Verification
Environment for Energy Management Systems Leveraging its De-carbonization
Technologies in Kyoso-no-Mori"
The next step is to support carbon neutral initiatives in
corporate activities by combining multiple supply and
demand sides to provide electricity flexibly across multiple sites.
Companies and municipalities are taking various measures to
promote energy savings, such as upgrading to
more efficient equipment and introducing
energy management systems for entire offices and factories.
a_box01img01 a_box01img02 a_box01img03 a_box01img04
However, the introduction of new equipment and systems requires
staffing and reviews of workflows for new operations
and management.
With Hitachi's DX x GX microgrid energy supply services,
a cross-industry consortium with energy and finance-related
companies has been formed. Customers can use efficient energy
supply facilities while reducing the amount of initial investment and
the work involved in facility maintenance and asset management.
Cross-industry Consortium

Moreover, Hitachi can optimize the customers'
energy operations utilizing DX.
As a pilot project, Hitachi introduced this service to four neighboring
offices in Hitachi City

By adopting a cogeneration system, heat energy can be used efficiently.
Waste heat generated during energy production is used for air
conditioning in cleanrooms.

As a result, CO2 emissions at the four sites are expected to be reduced by
approx. 4,500 tons, or 15% overall, annually.
Hitachi contributes to the realization of carbon neutrality by
continuously supporting energy operations optimization according
to the needs of companies and municipalities.
