Business Details

A business that provides electric power companies and others with substation products such as generators, transformers, switchgear, and lightning arresters, as well as Power Generation, Substation & Distribution Systems, Monitoring & Control Equipment, Hydroelectric Power Generation Equipment, and Energy Systems. Composed of two pillars: the domestic power energy business and the overseas substation business centered mainly on the United States and Singapore. Major affiliated companies include MEIDEN SINGAPORE PTE. LTD., TRIDELTA MEIDENSHA GmbH, and MEIDEN T&D (INDIA) LIMITED. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), both revenue and operating profit reached record highs.

Recent Overview

In the overseas-centered substation business, revenue and profit increased due to demand growth in the United States, Singapore, and other countries as well as efforts to improve profitability. The domestic-centered power energy business also achieved increased revenue and profit against a backdrop of increased demand for projects from electric power companies. The unamortized goodwill balance decreased from ¥1,411 million at the end of the prior period to ¥749 million.

Key Products

product
Substation Products

Substation equipment such as transformers, switchgear (including products not using SF6 gas), and lightning arresters for electric power companies. Demand for SF6-gas-free products is expanding, mainly in overseas developed countries, due to stricter environmental regulations.

platform
Power Generation, Substation & Distribution Systems

A business that designs, constructs, and delivers integrated systems for power plants, substations, and distribution networks. Contributed to increased revenue and profit against a backdrop of increased demand for projects from domestic electric power companies.

product
Monitoring & Control Equipment

Monitoring and control systems that support the stable operation of power infrastructure. Demand has remained solid, driven by demand for replacement of aging facilities and disaster prevention/national resilience policies.

product
Hydroelectric Power Generation Equipment

Provides generators, control equipment, and other equipment for hydroelectric power plants. Has a stable demand base amid the trend of renewable energy expansion.

platform
Energy Systems

Energy Systems that achieve efficient management and conversion of electric power. Benefits from expanding investment in power infrastructure in policy-supported fields under GX (green transformation).

Growth Drivers

  • Expanding demand for replacement of aging facilities built during Japan's period of rapid economic growth in the domestic power market
  • Surging demand for SF6-gas-free products (environmentally friendly products), mainly in overseas developed countries
  • Expanding investment in power infrastructure in policy-supported fields such as generative AI, semiconductors, and GX
  • Business expansion and profitability improvement in the substation business in the United States, Singapore, Germany, and India
  • Demand for planned and stable development of domestic power transmission and distribution networks driven by the introduction of the revenue cap system
  • Investment to strengthen domestic and overseas production bases under the Medium-Term Management Plan 2027 (total capital expenditure plan exceeding ¥260 million)

Risks

  • Increased construction costs and impact on profitability due to rising material and labor costs
  • Risk of construction progress delays mainly due to labor shortages in the domestic construction field
  • Pressure on profitability due to rising raw material and energy prices amid a weak yen
  • Impact on overseas business from geopolitical risks such as US tariff policy
  • Risk of fluctuations in cost estimates for construction contracts (possibility of additional provisions for losses on orders received)
  • Risk of impairment of goodwill (balance of ¥749 million at the end of the current period)
