June 29, 2026 - Hitachi Energy is investing €4 million ($4.7 million) into the development of the new Service Centre in Dublin North Park, scheduled to open in Autumn 2026 – strengthening grid resilience across Ireland.
Ireland’s electricity system is undergoing rapid change. Ireland’s energy system is facing a surging energy demand driven by digitalization and the expansion of energy-intensive data centers. With a significant percentage of Ireland’s electricity now coming from intermittent renewable sources, ensuring long‑term resilience and security of electricity supply is a national priority. This further increases the need to strengthen lifecycle service to modernizing the country’s aging energy infrastructure.
To address these evolving needs, Hitachi Energy is establishing a new Service Centre in Dublin North Park that will expand Ireland’s capability to modernise critical grid infrastructure, including transformers, switchgear, breakers, and digital services. Working closely with key customers, the new Service Centre reflects Hitachi Energy’s long‑term commitment to innovation, partnerships, and sustainability.
The Service Centre will include dedicated customer training and a customer operations center to support utilities, industries and data centers.
This milestone contributes to the company’s broader $1 billion USD global investment in expanding service capacity and portfolio and developing over 5,000 additional service experts worldwide.
The facility also underscores the company’s continued growth in Ireland through ongoing investment in its people and infrastructure. This investment will enable the creation of more jobs and support the company’s plan to expand its operational capabilities in Ireland.
The new Centre is designed to enhance operational efficiency through optimised workflows, modernized equipment, and a strong focus on HSE excellence and industry standards.
