Hitachi Energy to Invest $528 Million in New Transformer Factory in Mississippi
The project will more than double the company’s U.S. transformer production capacity and create 654 jobs, officials said.
- On Tuesday, Hitachi Energy announced a $528 million transformer manufacturing facility in Gallman, Mississippi, creating over 700 jobs and marking the company's largest single investment in the United States.
- The new 45-acre factory doubles production capacity at Hitachi Energy's existing Crystal Springs plant, continuing the company's 70-year operational presence in Mississippi.
- Federal officials, including EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin and Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves, praised the project as essential to the administration's 'energy dominance' agenda and American manufacturing expansion.
- Surging demand from data centers and utilities across North America drives the expansion, as increased domestic transformer production will support critical power grid modernization.
- Construction begins this year with production scheduled for 2029, as part of a $1.5 billion U.S. investment program including recent projects in Tennessee, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.
