HD Hyundai will supply large-scale power generation equipment to data centers of major U.S. technology companies.

HD Hyundai Heavy Industries recently signed a supply contract with the U.S.-based Cobham Energy Group for power generation equipment based on 9.6MW-class HiMSEN engines. The total project value is 1,000 megawatts (MW), amounting to 956 billion won, and will be used as a power source for data centers of local big tech companies.

Cobham Energy Group is an energy infrastructure and engineering company that supplies gas, LNG, and power products in various infrastructure projects, including data center construction and Department of War (DoW) projects.

This contract marks the largest-ever supply agreement for power generation engines by HD Hyundai Heavy Industries. Previously, in April, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries signed a 627.1 billion won supply contract with AEG, a U.S. energy infrastructure development company, for data center power generation equipment.

The 9.6MW-class HiMSEN engine being supplied is a large-capacity medium-speed engine featuring world-class power generation efficiency and reliability. With its high-output and high-efficiency performance, it can operate 24 hours a day, earning differentiated competitiveness in the data center market.

According to the U.S. Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), the share of total U.S. electricity consumed by data centers is projected to increase more than threefold by 2030. HD Hyundai continues to expand its group-wide response. While HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, an intermediate holding company in the shipbuilding sector, focuses on developing core technologies for floating data centers, HD Hyundai Electric and HD Hyundai Marine Solutions are expanding their businesses in power distribution and electrical equipment supply, as well as maintenance and repair of power generation engines, respectively, to secure early market entry.

In a phone interview with this newspaper, an HD Hyundai official proudly stated, "The continuous collaboration inquiries directed at HD Hyundai Heavy Industries in the data center power engine market are evidence that the technological capability and reliability of HiMSEN engines have been proven."
