HD Hyundai to Supply Power Generation Equipment Worth 627.1 Billion Won in the United States

HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has taken its first step into the local market in response to growing demand for data centers in the United States.

Recently, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries signed a contract worth 627.1 billion won to supply 684 megawatts (MW) of power generation equipment based on 20MW HiMSEN engines with Aperion Energy Group (AEG), a U.S. energy infrastructure development company.

The 20MW HiMSEN engines for power generation being supplied are large-capacity medium-speed engines, offering world-class power generation efficiency and reliability. Recognized for their competitiveness in the data center market, where 24-hour uninterrupted operation is essential, these engines boast high output and high efficiency, as well as rapid start-up capabilities and stable load response.

The U.S. data center market is growing rapidly, driven by the spread of generative AI services and expanded investment in cloud infrastructure. U.S. electricity demand is expected to continue rising through 2030.

In a telephone interview with this newspaper, an HD Hyundai official stated, "This contract will serve as a crucial foothold for entering the U.S. data center market."
