Power Transformers are key elements ensuring the reliability of power grids. By regulating voltage, they enable efficient transmission of electrical energy from the place of generation to the point of use. Many of them come from the Hitachi Energy factory in Łódź, one of the leading manufacturers in Europe.
Hitachi Energy power transformers are advanced, intelligent devices with digital capabilities. Their production requires the use of the latest technologies and engineering knowledge, as well as very precise manual work, including core assembly and winding. Each transformer is made to order in Łódź and is delivered to network operators, wind farms, or data centers around the world - wherever the reliability of energy supply is crucial.
