Hover Energy is the recipient of three 2025 Power Technology Excellence Awards. These awards recognize its leadership in smart microgrids and distributed renewables. It’s all part of the company’s efforts to go beyond traditional energy solutions. Together, they are creating a smart electricity infrastructure in the UK’s National Grid, a world leader in its field.
Hitachi Energy and Hover Energy collaborate to develop strong grid connections for the future. Partnership deepens state’s commitment to accelerate renewable energy projects, data centers and other vital facilities. This new collaborative initiative is a testament to the innovative and sustainable mindset from both organizations. Together, they’re innovating the UK’s energy provision into smarter solutions.
Strategic Partnerships and Projects
In mid-July of 2025, Hitachi Energy won a deal up to $700 million with European energy giant E.ON. This contract includes provision of high voltage transformers for Germany’s electrical transmission grid. This contract aims to improve Germany’s energy security, resilience, and affordability, emphasizing Hitachi’s role as a key player in the energy sector.
On a smaller scale but of equal interest is the UK partnership between Hitachi Energy and Omexom. Over the next four years, they’ll work together on collaborative, innovative projects to dramatically change the future of the UK’s transmission and distribution network. With today’s rapidly changing market driving explosive demand for smarter, more energy-efficient solutions, this collaboration couldn’t be more timely or important.
“We are excited to collaborate with Hitachi Energy on projects that will shape the future of the UK’s transmission and distribution network. Together, we aim to bring efficiency, reliability, and sustainability to every stage of project delivery.” – Andy Roach
Commitment to Innovation and Sustainability
Both Hover Energy and Hitachi Energy have a strong commitment to helping realize transformational electricity infrastructure improvements. Their combined work aims to speed up connections to the electric grid. These connections will be key to integrating large amounts of renewable energy and increasing energy efficiency across the board.
Further, this joint partnership goes beyond just connecting to the grid, recognizes the need to address technical and regulatory requirements. By combining both companies’ innovative technologies and know-how, both companies hope to propel the UK’s energy transition in the right direction.
“This collaboration strengthens our ability to deliver high-voltage solutions that accelerate the UK’s energy transition. By combining Hitachi Energy’s technology leadership with Omexom’s delivery expertise, we can offer customers a streamlined approach to grid connections that meets both technical and regulatory requirements.” – Carlos Gisbert
Future Outlook
The world energy scene is changing at an unprecedented pace. Strategic partnerships like the ones between Hover Energy, Hitachi Energy, and Omexom UK are essential for overcoming the electricity sector’s most pressing challenges. With a forward-looking development of intelligent microgrids and sustainable distributed energy solutions, these firms have them poised at the vanguard of transformative change.
