On May 6, LS Electric announced that it is participating in 'IEEE PES T&D 2026,' held from the 5th to the 7th (local time) at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois, USA, to showcase core power solutions tailored for the North American market. With a 30-booth (278.7㎡) exhibition, the company is presenting zones for DC solutions, ultra-high voltage transmission and substation solutions, and hyperscale data center solutions, introducing future strategic products that respond to the paradigm shift in the global power industry.


In the DC solutions section, LS Electric is exhibiting an extensive lineup of DC power distribution solutions, including UL-certified DC distribution boards, which are essential for entry into the North American market. Through this, the company aims to preemptively secure its supply capabilities for UL-certified DC power equipment and to gain an early lead in the rapidly expanding North American DC market.


LS Electric has built and operates a 'DC Factory' at its Cheonan site, where DC distribution has been commercialized, accumulating practical industrial application experience and technical know-how. With global big tech companies increasingly demanding enhanced power efficiency in data centers, the adoption of DC distribution is gaining traction, and DC is emerging as a game changer in the next-generation power industry.


For ultra-high voltage transmission solutions, LS Electric is unveiling a full lineup of core power equipment, including 345kV-class ultra-high voltage transformers, circuit breakers, switchgear, and STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) devices. The company plans to emphasize its total solution capabilities across the entire transmission and substation infrastructure, from power plants to substations, industrial plants, large buildings, and data centers.


With ongoing replacement of aging power grids and increased investments in new power infrastructure driven by the growth of the AI industry in North America, LS Electric plans to seize market expansion opportunities by showcasing its broad portfolio that covers everything from ultra-high voltage transmission to distribution.


As for data center solutions, the company is presenting highly reliable distribution systems and high-efficiency power equipment specialized for hyperscale data centers. As AI adoption accelerates, investments in North American data centers are surging, and demand is rapidly growing for high-end power solutions that deliver both stable power supply and energy efficiency.


Leveraging its local project experience and supply track record, LS Electric aims to further strengthen customer trust and solidify its position as a key player in the North American data center power market.



An LS Electric representative stated, "This exhibition will once again allow global customers to witness the core solution capabilities of LS Electric, which will lead the next-generation power market," adding, "Based on our differentiated competitiveness in ultra-high voltage, data center, and DC solutions, we will accelerate our expansion into the North American market and reinforce our leadership as a game changer in the DC era."
