    Hitachi Energy has launched its next-generation TXpert Hub, a part of its ecosystem for transformers' digitalization.

    The TXpert Hub enables monitoring by aggregating, storing and analyzing the information received from the transformer's digital sensors.

    It is built on the solid foundation of Hitachi Energy's journey of pioneering innovation in this field for more than 30 years and is conceived to simplify digitalization for any transformer with enhanced connectivity and cybersecurity.

    Next generation TXpert Hub: Digitalization for every transformer

    The next generation TXpert Hub, powered by the latest CoreTec technology, has been built from the ground up to ease transformer digitalization, focusing on:

    - Incorporating the operative experience from users of earlier versions of the system

    - The application of the latest technologies in communications and cyber security

    - Readiness for off-the-shelf retrofits

    TXpert upgrades and enhances the transformers to connect and integrate all the relevant data across many devices to deliver tangible impact and to make digital real. It makes the digitalization of transformers easier, more effective, and secure. Whatever the type of transformer it may be – old, new, dry, or liquid-filled, transmission or distribution – the TXpert ecosystem would be applicable to it. With its solid grounding built on the knowledge and intelligence of manufacturing and servicing thousands of transformers, the TXpert ecosystem delivers actionable, data-driven insights with a real impact on reducing costs, optimizing operations, extending life expectancy, thereby further enhancing its environmental performance.
