Hyosung Heavy Industries said on November 4 that it will participate in BIXPO 2026, the Bitgaram International Electric Power Technology Expo, which will be held at the Kim Dae-jung Convention Center in Gwangju from November 4 to 6. About 200 domestic and international companies will take part in BIXPO 2026, organized by Korea Electric Power Corporation.


At the exhibition, the company will showcase an HVDC system that includes valves and control equipment; a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), which stabilizes power grids; solid-state transformers (SSTs), a next-generation power conversion device; and ARMOUR+, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based asset management platform for power facilities. In September, Hyosung Heavy Industries was selected for Korea Electric Power Corporation's project to localize and demonstrate large-capacity voltage-source HVDC technology.


Through the exhibition, Hyosung Heavy Industries plans to present its latest power technologies and development achievements to domestic and international customers and industry professionals, and expand technical exchanges.



A Hyosung Heavy Industries representative said, "This exhibition will provide an opportunity to introduce our key next-generation power grid technologies and solutions to domestic and international customers. We will continue to advance power technologies such as SSTs and HVDC and strengthen our competitiveness to lead the future power grid market."
