About Hitachi-GE

Hitachi-GE Nuclear Energy, Ltd. – or Hitachi-GE – is the company that has brought the UK ABWR to the UK. We are a joint venture between two of the world’s leading companies, Hitachi, Ltd. and General Electric Company (GE).

Since the introduction of the BWR technology into Japan by GE in the 1960s, Hitachi has participated in the design, development, construction and maintenance of nuclear power plants within Japan.

We were formed in July 2007 and are owned 80.01% by Hitachi and 19.99% by GE. Both companies have a long history of experience in the nuclear industry. We have been involved in the construction of 4 ABWRs and in the license application of 2 nuclear power plants.
