The company said Wednesday it will take part in IEEE PES T&D 2026, to be held May 4-7 (local time) in Chicago.
The event will be held under the theme “Powering Reliability, Engineering Resilience.” Hyosung Heavy said it will showcase solutions linking today’s grid needs with future demand.
Products highlighted include the world’s largest-capacity 800kV 7,000A GCB (gas-insulated circuit breaker); an SST (solid-state transformer) positioned as a core power solution for next-generation data centers; a voltage-source HVDC (high-voltage direct current transmission system) developed with what it said is the first domestically owned technology of its kind; and a STATCOM (static synchronous compensator) aimed at strengthening power stability for data centers and renewable energy.
The 800kV 7,000A GCB to be displayed is a U.S. export-focused model developed in March. Hyosung Heavy said design optimization kept it the same size as its existing 5,000A product while enabling stable handling of 7,000A current. The company will also exhibit a submodule of its 22.9kV SST, which it said it developed first in the world and which is designed to significantly improve data center power efficiency.
Hyosung Heavy said it plans to maximize competitiveness in established equipment such as extra-high-voltage transformers and circuit breakers as local power demand is expected to surge, while also promoting next-generation technologies including SST and HVDC to reinforce its position as a total-solution provider.
“Through this exhibition, we will demonstrate to power-industry stakeholders that Hyosung Heavy Industries is the most reliable partner for building AI power grids,” a company official said. “We will combine the power-infrastructure technology we have accumulated with future-oriented solutions to lead a paradigm shift in the U.S. market.”
Meanwhile, IEEE PES T&D is a global exhibition and conference hosted by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and held every two years. More than 800 companies from around the world participate to share power-industry trends and solutions.
