Resilience and stability redefined
Grid-enSure®
Overview of Grid-enSure power grid solutions, based on power electronics and advanced control systems, enhancing grid resilience, flexibility and supporting grid modernization.
The new challenges for energy players
The world's energy grids are evolving at an unprecedented pace due to changes in the generation mix, load demand, and the broader power ecosystem. Without the right actions and grid solutions, the future more complex power grid will be weaker, less controllable, more decentralized, and less resilient.
Weakness of the grid
The rise in distributed renewable energy sources has decentralized power production. This shift is essential for sustainability but also requires significant adjustments in grid management.
Decentralization of the grid
The decentralization of the grid and the integration of diverse energy sources necessitate sophisticated control systems capable of active demand response.
Lack of resilience and stability of the grid
Technologies like synthetic inertia and fast frequency response enhance grid stability and support resilient power grid operations.
What is Grid-enSure®?
Grid-enSure is a fully integrated portfolio that comprises Hitachi Energy’s top end solutions, present and future, based on Power Electronics and Advanced Control Systems. Designed to enhance the flexibility, resilience and stability of the grid
From component performance to system performance
For decades, grid performance was measured by individual components — faster switching, higher capacity, stronger equipment.
Today, that is no longer enough.
As power systems become more dynamic and interconnected, what matters is how the entire system behaves in real time especially under stress.
The MACH™ control and protection platform enables this shift. By coordinating control and protection across the full system, MACH ensures disturbances are detected early, contained locally and prevented from escalating.
- Microsecond response to fast-changing grid conditions
- System-wide coordination across converters, protection and operating modes
- Stable operation under stress, even in low-inertia grids
The result: optimized system-level performance where the whole system performs better than the sum of its parts.
Future-proof solutions available today
The Grid-enSure® portfolio encompasses cutting-edge Static Compensator (STATCOM), High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC), Static Frequency Converter (SFC) and Energy Storage Solutions (ESS) technologies to deliver future-proof functionalities such as voltage support, fast frequency response, synthetic inertia, fault current contribution, and enhanced system strength.

+20%
Higher switching frequency
The higher switching frequency of the semiconductors (x10 – x100) reduces the dampening of harmonics into the grid, thus reducing the need of filters in low power applications (i.e. eMobility).
