Hitachi Energy and Ansaldo Energia launch a strategic partnership to bring integrated power solutions to meet surging electricity demand
Press Release | Zurich, Switzerland | 16.10.2026 | 2 min read
Collaboration will bring together complementary power generation and grid technologies to deliver reliable, flexible and scalable power infrastructure as electricity demand surges globally.
Hitachi Energy and Ansaldo Energia today signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop and market integrated power solutions designed to help customers secure reliable power faster and meet rapidly growing electricity needs with greater flexibility, resilience and speed.
The collaboration aims to bring together complementary capabilities in power generation and power grid infrastructure, combining Ansaldo Energia's gas-turbine and generator technologies with Hitachi Energy's leadership in full grid system integration spanning high-voltage, transformers, automation and power electronics.
Together, the companies intend to develop integrated power generation and electrification solutions capable of serving both 60 Hz and 50 Hz markets, including deployment in data centers.
The collaboration comes as global electricity demand is expected to nearly double by 2050 as electrification accelerates across digital infrastructure, industry, and transportation. The challenge is particularly acute in the United States, where the rapid expansion of AI and data centers is driving unprecedented demand for power and creating an urgent need for reliable, large-scale energy infrastructure that can be deployed faster.
Power demand is growing at a pace we have not seen for decades as the world enters the electricity era.
As power demand continues to outpace available infrastructure, the need for scalable, rapidly deployable power solutions has become increasingly urgent. By combining our complementary strengths with Ansaldo Energia, we help customers unlock new capacity, accelerate time to power, and build resilient energy systems that support economic growth and digital innovation.
Andreas Schierenbeck
CEO of Hitachi Energy
Meeting the world's growing demand for electricity requires closer collaboration across the entire energy value chain.
By combining Ansaldo Energia's power generation technologies with Hitachi Energy's expertise in grid infrastructure, we will provide integrated solutions that accelerate deployment and deliver the scale, flexibility and reliability required by the next generation of industrial, digital and energy infrastructure.
Fabrizio Fabbri
CEO of Ansaldo Energia
Through this collaboration, both companies intend to develop an end-to-end solution for various applications, integrating power generation with the complete power transmission system through to the point of consumption, including energy hubs, data centers and other large-scale electricity consumers. Hitachi Energy also aims to support the autonomous and integrated operation of data centers through One Hitachi by combining its end-to-end power solutions with HMAX Data Center.
