LS Eco Energy has entered Japan’s power cable market with a supply agreement for 6.6-kV distribution cables through its LS-VINA subsidiary.

LS Eco Energy has secured its first Japan cable contract through its Vietnamese subsidiary, LS-VINA Cable & System. The company signed an annual agreement with Kitanihon Electric Wire Co. Ltd. to supply 6.6 kV CVT distribution cables, marking a key milestone in its global expansion.

Entering a High-Standard Market

Kitanihon Electric Wire, part of the Tohoku Electric Power Group, supplies distribution cables to major utilities across Japan. However, Japan’s power market remains difficult to enter due to strict technical standards and rigorous quality requirements.

As a result, the LS Eco Energy Japan cable contract demonstrates the company’s ability to meet demanding specifications. LS Eco Energy secured the agreement in cooperation with its affiliate LS Cable & System Japan, showing a coordinated global strategy.

Expanding Global Growth Strategy

LS Eco Energy continues to target high-value power cable markets. The company plans to expand further into Japan, the United States, and Europe with advanced cable solutions.

The company operates as part of the broader LS Cable & System group and works closely with its affiliates to support international business development. In 2025, LS Eco Energy reported approximately $680 million in revenue, a record high driven by rising demand for power infrastructure.

Supporting Future Power Infrastructure

The LS Eco Energy Japan cable contract highlights growing demand for high-performance distribution cables. Products such as 6.6 kV CVT cables play a critical role in ensuring grid reliability and supporting modern energy systems.

As global infrastructure investment increases, LS Eco Energy continues to strengthen its position in advanced power cable markets.
