Order Inflows and Strategic Wins

The company secured a flagship 2 GW wind power evacuation order in Europe and its first battery energy storage system (BESS) project, a 165 MW / 330 MWh facility in Andhra Pradesh. In the domestic market, Hitachi Energy won a prestigious order for a 100 GW solar park in western India, including load pooling stations with 56 bays of 400 kV GIS. Data center orders included over 560 MVA power transformers and a significant 40x2500 KVA project in Hyderabad for a leading Indian multinational conglomerate.

The order backlog reached a record-high ₹32,222.1 crore, providing substantial revenue visibility. Export orders accounted for 33.6% of total bookings, with demand originating from Europe, North America, and South Asia. The shift in order mix saw industries and transport/infrastructure sectors gaining prominence, accounting for 34% and 28% of orders respectively, compared to 2% each in Q1FY26.

Capacity Expansion and ESG Progress

Hitachi Energy initiated construction of its 20th manufacturing unit, a large power transformer factory in Karjan, Vadodara, on June 12, 2026. The facility represents a ₹2,000 crore investment aimed at expanding transformer manufacturing capacity in India, with a completion target of December 2028. Designed as a fully digital, smart manufacturing facility, it aligns with the 'Make in India' initiative. The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendrabhai Patel and over 250 customers.

On the environmental front, the company achieved a 78% reduction in CO2 emissions against its 2030 target of 50%. It has attained 100% renewable electricity across operations through rooftop solar, power purchase agreements (PPAs), and I-RECs. Water usage reduced by 16% towards a 25% target, while waste disposal to landfill decreased by over 80%. Female representation in the workforce increased to 10%, up from 5.8% in 2019, progressing toward the 16-18% target.

What the Numbers Show

The disproportionate growth in net profit (123.5%) compared to revenue growth (68.6%) highlights substantial operating leverage and margin expansion. Operational EBITDA margins improved to 16.0% from 11.5%, driven by efficient execution of a favorable product mix and supply chain optimizations. The diversification of order sources away from utilities (which dropped from 96% to 38% of the order mix) towards industries and infrastructure suggests a broadening customer base, reducing dependency on single-sector cycles. The ₹2,000 crore capacity expansion further signals confidence in sustained long-term demand for grid modernization equipment.
