Product Lifecycle Management Expert - HVDC

Business Information:

Our Indian Operations Centre (INOPC) is a competence center with around 2600+ skilled engineers who focus on tendering, engineering, planning, procurement, functional system testing, installation supervision, and commissioning. Over the last decade, INOPC has evolved to become the largest engineering hub serving more than 40 countries across different energy sectors. The team caters to the four business units—Transformers, Grid Integration, Grid Automation, High Voltage and has successfully executed engineering and commissioning for projects in more than 80 countries. Hitachi Energy HVDC High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) is a key enabler for a carbon-neutral energy system. It is highly efficient for transmitting large amounts of electricity over long distances, integration of renewables and interconnecting grids, opening up for new sustainable transmission solutions. HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) and HVDC Light® are highly efficient alternatives for transmitting bulk power and for special purpose applications. The classic HVDC technology is used to transmit electric power over long distances by overhead transmission lines or submarine cables. It is also used to interconnect separate power systems, where traditional alternating current (AC) connections cannot be used. HVDC Light® is an underground and submarine cable power transmission technology developed by Hitachi Energy that offers additional benefits compared to HVDC Classic. The ongoing transition toward a more sustainable energy system requires cutting edge technology deployed with speed and scale in our power grids. Hitachi Energy plays a pivotal role in making this happen supporting customers with solutions like High Voltage DC (HVDC) transmission systems in order to connect renewable power to the power grid, interconnect different energy markets and dispatch energy all the way to the increasingly electrified loads. The market is strong, and we are continuing to scale the business to serve the markets need no and for the foreseen future.
