Hitachi Zosen Inova AG, (HZI) the Swiss-based subsidiary of Hitachi Zosen Corp., has announced plans to purchase all shares of HNP Kraftwerkstechnik GmbH, a subsidiary of Germany based Hydraulik Nord GmbH.
The acquisition brings together HZI, which specializes in the design, construction, and service of energy-from-waste (EfW) plants, with HNP, which engages in the services of EfW plants and power generation facilities in Germany.
