LAKE MARY, Fla., August 11, 2020— Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems, Ltd. (MHPS) continues to lead the power generation industry in global market share year-to-date for heavy duty gas turbines (100 megawatts [MW] and above) according to data from McCoy Power Reports, the industry's premier reporting agency. Orders for 3,479 MW represent 32 percent global market share in the first half of 2020. Closely watched by industry experts, the heavy duty segment represents the most advanced technology and drives energy production globally.

MHPS also achieved 52 percent global market share for advanced class gas turbines (G-, H- and J-Class), which is a subset of the heavy duty segment. MHPS' J-Series gas turbines continue to lead the market with their unrivaled combination of efficiency greater than 64 percent and world-class reliability of 99.5 percent.
