Hitachi Receives Order for Next-Generation National Load Dispatch System

Going forward, the Hitachi Group will continue to contribute to the development of a safe, secure, and comfortable social infrastructure by utilizing Lumada for social innovation.

“Hitachi continues to contribute to the stable operation of social infrastructure in various fields by integrating IT, OT and products. In this project, we aim to realize a nationwide-scale power exchange system by synergizing the capabilities of Hitachi's business divisions and Hitachi Energy, which have extensive experience in the Japanese and global markets, respectively. I am pleased to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society through co-creation and social innovation by Lumada's customers,” said Keiji Kojima, President and CEO of Hitachi, Ltd.

“The establishment of a new operating model, led by our customer Transmission and Distribution IT & OT Systems LLC, is a pioneering effort to leverage digitization to foster a transparent, collaborative, and economically rational ecosystem while maintaining the agility to adapt to the dynamics of the future energy system. With electricity increasingly becoming the backbone of the overall energy system, and Hitachi as a strategic partner in its lifecycle, Japan's transmission and distribution system will guarantee energy security while meeting some of the country's social and environmental needs.
