Summary — President Trump’s AI, Energy Dominance Agenda Fuels $1B Investment

Hitachi Energy announced a $1 billion investment in U.S. electrical grid infrastructure, including $457 million for a new large power transformer facility in Virginia. This investment is expected to create thousands of jobs and support the artificial intelligence revolution. The company cited the White House AI Action Plan as a key catalyst, aligning with President Trump’s energy dominance agenda to fortify supply chains and establish the U.S. as a global AI powerhouse. This follows a previous $92 billion commitment from energy and tech companies for AI and energy infrastructure in Pennsylvania earlier this year, reflecting a broader trend of onshoring production and expanding manufacturing under the America First trade policy.
