About Hitachi Energy
Based in Zurich, Hitachi Energy is a Swiss power-technology company that ranks among the largest makers of transmission and distribution equipment for power grids. Its products include high-voltage switchgear and breakers, transformers, HVDC links, grid automation, FACTS and power-quality systems, instrument transformers and surge arresters.
ZHIMAI works from China to supply Hitachi Energy grid equipment and spare parts internationally. Direct relationships with manufacturers in China, Asia and beyond keep our sourcing wide, and our team manages procurement, logistics and customs on every shipment.
Typical product lines we supply:
- Transformers: power, distribution, traction and special transformers plus shunt reactors, including EconiQ eco-efficient and dry-type units.
- High-voltage switchgear and breakers: gas-insulated (GIS), hybrid (PASS) and air-insulated switchgear, circuit breakers, disconnectors and generator circuit-breakers up to 800 kV.
- HVDC transmission: HVDC and UHVDC systems and converter stations for long-distance bulk power transfer and offshore wind grid connections.
- FACTS and power quality: STATCOMs, static var compensators, capacitor banks, reactors and active harmonic filters that stabilize voltage and improve grid power quality.
- Grid automation: protection relays, substation automation, RTUs and SCADA/network-management software for transmission and distribution grids.
- Instrument transformers and surge arresters: high- and medium-voltage current/voltage instrument transformers, bushings and surge arresters for substation measurement and overvoltage protection.
Current grid products and legacy or hard-to-find Hitachi Energy items are both available, the latter sourced subject to compliance screening.
