Purpose of Integration
Climate change due to global warming is triggering accelerating efforts worldwide to achieve carbon neutrality by reducing greenhouse gas emissions to net zero. Increasing demand for electricity in growing economies, particularly emerging markets, and heightened concerns about energy security, are expected to drive practical transitions to new forms of energy, such as hydrogen, ammonia and other carbon-free fuels, alongside existing thermal-power generation. Large power plants, which have served as the backbone of power infrastructure so far, will play an important transitional role in balancing the variability of renewable energy due to weather and other factors.
In the midst of such market changes, Mitsubishi Electric and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries have agreed to integrate related businesses, technologies and assets to enhance market competitiveness. The integration is expected to strengthen the partnership between the two companies to an unprecedented level in order to expand their power-generator systems business globally and contribute to a carbon-neutral world.
