Italy, Monselice: Established as INDELVE – Industria Elettrotecnica Veneta in 1952 to produce transformers and insulators, Hitachi Energy’s factory celebrates 70th anniversary.

The factory located in Monselice, just a few kilometres from Padua and Venice, develops and produces power transformers up to 190 MVA 230 kV, supporting power transmission and distribution in Italy and abroad. The factory is in fact exporting to Europe, North Africa and Middle East.

Monselice unit (some 250 employees) is a centre for the development and design of power transformers up to 63 MVA and for the special design for mobile substations (i.e., transformers integrated with high-voltage and control equipment installed on trailers), reconnecting plants to the grid under emergency conditions, in very short time. It also houses one of the technology centres of the Global Transformers Business Unit.

More than 400 people – employees with their families, partners, media and local institutions – attended factory tours and the event.
