Hitachi Energy<\/strong> is strengthening its position as a major contributor<\/strong> to decarbonization<\/strong> and boosting renewable energy<\/strong> by investing more than $200 million<\/strong> to expand transformer operations<\/strong> in Brazil<\/strong> to address growing global demand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a company press release<\/strong>, the investment, announced during Hitachi Energy’s 70th anniversary<\/strong> celebration in Brazil<\/strong>, is the company’s largest<\/strong> in the country in decades and will create more than 600 direct jobs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will include the expansion<\/strong> and modernization<\/strong> of the Guarulhos transformer factory<\/strong> in S\u00e3o Paulo<\/strong> and the construction of a state-of-the-art transformer manufacturing plant<\/strong>, which is expected to be ready by 2028<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Global Leadership<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hitachi Energy<\/strong> is leveraging its global presence<\/strong> to support worldwide demand for transformers<\/strong>, driven by ongoing efforts<\/strong> to further electrify<\/strong> the energy system<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Factories such as those in Guarulhos<\/strong> and Blumenau<\/strong> in Brazil<\/strong>, backed by the expertise<\/strong> and commitment<\/strong> of its teams, are supporting customers in the Americas<\/strong>, Europe<\/strong>, and the Middle East<\/strong> with power<\/strong>, distribution transformers<\/strong>, shunt reactors<\/strong>, components<\/strong>, and services<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During its 70 years<\/strong> in Brazil<\/strong>, Hitachi Energy<\/strong> has supplied transformers<\/strong> for major HVDC transmission systems<\/strong> such as Belo Monte II<\/strong>; Itaipu<\/strong>, one of the world’s largest hydroelectric plants<\/strong>; and Rio Madeira<\/strong>, one of the world’s longest and most powerful transmission links<\/strong> at 2,375 kilometers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transformers<\/strong> are an important part of the energy value chain<\/strong>, enabling the efficient transmission<\/strong> and distribution<\/strong> of electricity<\/strong> and facilitating the decarbonization<\/strong> of energy systems<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
