Power infrastructure exhibition
LS ELECTRIC will showcase next-generation power grid technologies, including ultra-high-voltage direct current transmission (HVDC) and power infrastructure for artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.
LS ELECTRIC said on October 28 that it will participate in the Bitgaram International Exposition of Electric Power Technology (BIXPO) 2026, held at the Kimdaejung Convention Center in Gwangju from November 4 to November 6.
LS ELECTRIC will set up a 108-square-meter exhibition booth to present HVDC, AI data center power solutions, a static synchronous compensator (E-STATCOM), and an energy management system (K-EMS).
HVDC and data center solutions
HVDC is the main technology on display. HVDC converts large amounts of electricity into direct current for long-distance transmission. Drawing on its experience building HVDC converter facilities between Bukdangjin and Godeok and participating in the east coast-to-capital region HVDC project, LS ELECTRIC is pursuing the supply of converter transformers (C-TR) for national power grid projects, including the west coast energy highway.
For AI data centers, the company will introduce existing alternating-current power supply systems and next-generation 800V direct-current distribution technology. It will also exhibit E-STATCOM, which maintains stable voltage despite fluctuations in electrical loads, and K-EMS, a system for operating large power networks.
An LS ELECTRIC representative said, “We will strengthen the competitiveness of domestically developed HVDC technology based on our experience carrying out domestic HVDC projects and our accumulated technological capabilities.”
