The power transformer industry is facing an unprecedented challenge: a shortage of critical components and materials leading to significant delays. Lead times for large power transformers have surged, with some wait times extending over two years.
As global demand for power infrastructure grows—driven by energy transitions, urbanization, and the integration of renewable energy sources—this shortage has left utilities and industries struggling to keep pace.
The shortage stems from a combination of factors. First, supply chain disruptions have hampered the availability of essential materials, such as electrical steel, necessary for transformer cores.
At the same time, increased demand for new transformers has intensified competition for these limited resources.Add in the logistical complexities of the global supply chain, and it’s clear why the industry is facing an uphill battle.
For businesses relying on timely maintenance or upgrades to their transformers, these delays can lead to operational challenges, production slowdowns, and even potential power disruptions. Companies waiting for new transformers are left in a tough spot, with limited options for maintaining or replacing critical equipment.
