The annual supply agreement was signed with Kitanihon Electric Wire, a subsidiary of Tohoku Electric Power.
The contract covers 6.6-kV cross-linked polyethylene (CVT) distribution cables used in power networks. Japanโs power infrastructure market is widely regarded as difficult to enter due to strict technical specifications and rigorous quality standards.
Partnership supports expansion strategy
The LS Eco Energy Japan cable contract was secured in cooperation with LS Cable & System Japan, highlighting coordination across the broader LS Cable & System group.
The deal is viewed as a stepping-stone for further expansion in Japan, while also supporting diversification of the companyโs product portfolio.
Focus on high-value power cable markets
Company leadership emphasized the importance of entering advanced markets with high technical requirements.
Jang Dong-wook, head of LS-VINA, noted that the contract reflects the companyโs ability to meet demanding standards and supports plans to expand into markets such as Japan, the United States and Europe with higher-value products.
Growth driven by global infrastructure demand
LS Eco Energy, part of the broader LS Cable & System group, continues to build its international presence through coordinated overseas development efforts.
The company reported approximately $680 million in provisional revenue for 2025, a record high, driven by rising global demand for power infrastructure and increasing exports to advanced markets.
With its first foothold in Japan, LS Eco Energy is positioning itself for continued growth in high-specification cable segments.
