LS Eco Energy (229640.KQ) plans to mass-produce higher-performance ultra-high voltage cables next year to strengthen its position in the power infrastructure market required for artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.
LS Eco Energy announced Tuesday that its Vietnam subsidiary, LS-VINA, plans to begin mass production of 400-kilovolt (kV) ultra-high voltage cables in the second half of next year. To that end, the company has launched international certification and Pre-Qualification (PQ) procedures for evaluating the performance of ultra-high voltage cables. PQ is a key process for assessing the long-term stability of ultra-high voltage cables and is a mandatory step for winning global project contracts.
Based on higher performance than existing 230V-class products, 400kV ultra-high voltage cables can be used for national trunk transmission networks, large-scale industrial complexes, and data centers. LS Eco Energy recently secured certification to enter the U.S. market with its 230V-class products and now plans to enhance its competitiveness through the 400kV class.
"Entering the 400kV class will serve as a catalyst for expanding into advanced markets while accelerating our transition toward a profitability-focused business structure," a company official said.
