The fact that the technology I promote contribute to human prosperity makes me proud to be Power Grids.

"At Power Grids, we help solve global environmental problems by contributing to sustainable energy development through our pioneering innovative solutions.

As a market manager in charge of the transportation segment in Korea, I get to promote solutions that contribute in shaping the future of sustainable energy and in decarbonizing the world. I advocate these superior and environment-friendly solutions to different industries through sales activities, as my contribution in shaping the future of sustainable energy.

One such example is the shore-to-ship power solution, which can cut emissions and noise from ships in ports. Electrolysis DC power supply supports this, to make hydrogen which helps decarbonize transportation, power buildings and industries. A variety of EV charging systems such as digital solutions and TOSA also contribute to decarbonization.

Power Grids promotes such forward-thinking and innovative ideas related to transportation that lead to sustainable technologies and further contribute to humanity. It has a core technology of SFC (Static Frequency Converter) for shore-to-ship power solution that can reduce pollution by stopping the diesel generators on ships.

A special culture

I have met various customers from transportation industries—from railway, metro, port and electric bus. We are the top choice of our customers with our proven global expertise and excellent service. We have a unique and special culture that endears us to stakeholders.

Hitachi ABB Power Grids is different as compared to other companies in South Korea. All employees can freely express their creative opinions regardless of position. They are empowered and they take responsibility for their opinions. I think this is the best about the culture of Hitachi Power Grids in Korea.

Our ABB heritage, combined with Hitachi’s unique technology, culture of cooperation and harmony, truly inspire global development. As part of a stronger joined up entity (as Hitachi ABB Power Grids), I am excited to be part of a team that will create solutions and resources for different industries that will inspire the world to shape the future of sustainable energy.”
