Every day, the world’s appetite for energy increases. Hitachi’s energy business and energy saving systems are helping to meet these demands while making more efficient use of the energy we already have.
Coal is the most abundant energy source in the US. Its clean and efficient use is vital to our long-term economic security and sustainability. That’s why Hitachi is developing superior emission control systems.
Today, transformers lose 2% to 4% of electrical energy. This inspired Hitachi to create transformers with an amorphous alloy core. These amorphous metal transformers have superior electrical characteristics – which greatly reduce “no-load loss.”
Hitachi smart grid technologies are more than smart. They help integrate renewable sources of energy by managing supply and demand. This reduces CO2 emissions. Brilliant.
Hitachi is helping coal clean up its act. With CO2 capture and sequestration, Hitachi is helping supercritical power plants to move towards near-zero emission power generation from fossil fuels.
