Our economic and social activities, as well as our personal lives, are supported by the social infrastructure of electric power, gas, waterworks, transportation, and telecommunications.
Until today, expectations have been high regarding solar and wind power generation as safe and reliable sources of renewable energy.
To manage this kind of social infrastructure, advanced control technology and information technology (IT) are absolutely necessary, and a new market for a combination of these two technologies is now developing.
Hitachi Consulting Japan, in addition to the successes and know-how acquired over the years by the Hitachi Group, will develop a business model combining the cutting edge of technology and management techniques for innovation of the social infrastructure.
