March 24, 2025 | Hitachi EnergyEstimated reading time: 1 minute
China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) recently announced its 2024 Green Manufacturing List, with two of Hitachi Energy's local manufacturing bases in Beijing and Datong in north China’s Shanxi Province, receiving the titles of National Green Factory. This brings the total number of Hitachi Energy's local enterprises on the list to four.
MIIT has organized National Green Factory since 2017 to help improve China’s clean manufacturing system and promote sustainable industrial development. By 2024, there were over 6,400 national green factories in China. Green factories must feature intensive efficiency, clean production, waste utilization, and low-carbon energy use as a fundamental part of the green manufacturing system.
“Hitachi Energy places sustainability at the heart of its Purpose and is committed to working with customers and partners to advance the energy transition. The National Green Factory certification is a high recognition of our efforts in fulfilling social and environmental responsibilities in China,” said James Zhao, Executive Vice President and Region head of Greater China, Hitachi Energy. “We will continue to accelerate the upgrade of our business in China, supporting China’s high-quality manufacturing and the realization of its carbon goals.”
The two new companies, Hitachi Energy Power System Co. Ltd. and Hitachi Energy Datong Traction Transformers Co. Ltd., selected as green factories have integrated green development principles into every aspect of their productions and operations. In addition, in line with Hitachi Energy’s efforts to achieve carbon neutrality within its operations by 2030, both factories commit to sourcing 100 percent of its purchased electricity from fossil-free sources.
