KRHyosung Heavy Industries is expanding its U.S. power infrastructure business to meet rising demand driven by artificial intelligence and data centers. The company is leveraging its local manufacturing base and expertise in power equipment and grid technologies, focusing on its solid-state transformer (SST), which uses advanced semiconductor technology to manage voltage and current. Hyosung recently developed a 22.9-kilovolt SST capable of connecting directly to urban distribution networks. With the global SST market projected to grow rapidly, Hyosung aims to secure an early position in the emerging market for high-capacity SSTs used in data centers. To support its U.S. expansion, the company has invested $300 million in upgrading its transformer plant in Tennessee and formed a joint venture with Quanta Services to manufacture high-voltage circuit breakers in Pennsylvania.
