Mitsubishi Electric US, Inc. products

Mitsubishi Electric equipment and systems in the field of power generation are known for their high level of reliability, durability and safety by customers worldwide. Our generators and plant instrumentation and control systems contribute to ensuring optimum efficiency in the power generation and plant operation of hydroelectric, thermal and nuclear power facilities.

Mitsubishi Electric is a leading developer and manufacturer of power transmission and distribution systems on a global scale. Our high-voltage switchgears, transformers and power stabilization devices are core products in commercial and private utilities systems alike, and our control systems are installed to ensure stable operation that is both environment-conscious and highly efficient.

A long-time leader in the manufacture of power generation and distribution equipment and systems, Mitsubishi Electric technologies are renowned for reliability, safety and their contribution to higher efficiency. Our low- and medium-voltage switchgears and systems are installed in power plants, substations, factories and building complexes around the world, helping to ensure a stable supply of electricity wherever it is required.

Mitsubishi Electric Power Products, Inc (MEPPI) Transportation System Division (TSD) offers a wide range of transit industry products and services for rolling stock applications for passenger rail and freight locomotives. Our equipment is some of the most reliable in the transit industry.

Mitsubishi Electric began its industry leadership in Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS), building its first in 1968. In 1973, it installed the first 500kV hybrid gas-insulated substation. Three years later, Mitsubishi Electric constructed the world’s first 550kV fully gas insulated switchyard at the Ohi Nuclear Power Station, which is the largest nuclear power plant in Japan. Since then, more than 20,000 GIS bays have been installed in substations worldwide.

Today’s expansion and interconnection of grid infrastructures highlights the need for many new substations to upgrade, replace, or augment existing, aging substations. MEPPI recognizes that Air Insulated Substations will represent a significant portion of these new substations and commits to a turnkey approach similar to our Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) solutions.

Mitsubishi Electric HVDC systems provide precise control over power flows and elevate existing stability limitations. Alternative sources of power generation, such as renewables, are typically at great distances from load centers. In these cases, connection through HVDC systems is the optimal solution, when considering reactive power compensation requirements and overall system stability with an AC-based alternative.

Mitsubishi Electric provides a full range of vacuum circuit breakers with the highest quality, reliability and value. Our Vacuum Circuit Breakers (VCB) produce no greenhouse gases, have a small footprint, are suitable for thousands of operations, are low maintenance, and feature long-life vacuum bottles. All Mitsubishi Electric Vacuum Circuit Breakers are backed by our commitment to responsive service.

Volt VAR Control (VVC) Solutions apply a Power Quality Compensator (PQC) to monitor the grid and provide application targeted support. The Mitsubishi Electric Power Products, Inc (MEPPI) VVC and Power Quality (PQ) solutions team is responsible for developing power electronics systems that enhance and solve power quality issues on the distribution grid and industrial power feeders. The Power Quality Compensator (PQC) is a power electronic-based Volt Var Control improved voltage stability and autonomous real or reactive power control.
