Hitachi to double US transformer production
Original: Hitachi to double US production of small and medium-sized power transformers
Hitachi Energy plans to double its US production capacity for small and medium-sized power transformers, according to Utility Dive. The expansion comes as American utilities face long lead times and shortages of grid equipment amid rising electricity demand from data centers and electrification, making domestic manufacturing capacity a growing point of policy and industry concern.
