HD Construction Equipment’s 22-liter gas generator engine long block
HD Construction Equipment is proving its competitiveness in the North American generator engine market through consecutive large-scale orders.
The company announced via a public disclosure on Tuesday the 10th that it has signed a contract to supply 22-liter gas generator engine long blocks to Power Solutions International, Inc. (PSI), a North American power generation and engine solutions provider. A long block is a semi-finished engine assembly excluding fuel and ignition systems. The two-year contract runs from 2027 and is valued at approximately KRW 160 billion.
PSI is a major North American power generation and engine solutions company that provides customized power systems to infrastructure facilities across various industries, including data centers. PSI plans to utilize HD Construction Equipment’s generator engine long blocks in its power generation systems for deployment across client sites.
Following a KRW 390 billion order for gas generator engine long blocks in October, HD Construction Equipment added this new deal to reach cumulative supply contracts worth KRW 550 billion in North America alone within a single month. Industry analysts note that these back-to-back large-scale wins demonstrate the advanced technology and reliability of the company’s engines in the North American market.
According to market research firm Market Data Forecast, the North American generator market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.14%, expanding from approximately $9.41 billion (about ₩12.7 trillion) in 2026 to $13.02 billion (about ₩17.5 trillion) by 2034.
As the power generation market expands amid surging electricity demand from AI data center growth, HD Construction Equipment is stepping up its push into North America with its generator engines. Offering short lead times, rapid installation, and the flexibility to scale operations according to fluctuating power demand, the company's generator engines are gaining traction as ideal power solutions for data centers.
"These back-to-back major supply contracts once again demonstrate the technological prowess and reliability of our engines," an HD Construction Equipment official said. "We will continue to expand our business by actively targeting the rapidly growing power generation infrastructure market."
Meanwhile, HD Construction Equipment plans to accelerate its entry into the high-output generator engine market by establishing a production system for ultra-large 1–3 MWe generator engines, centered around its new Gunsan engine plant completed last month.
