Australia, Welshpool: Hitachi Energy inaugurated its brand-new Service Transformer Refurbishment and Testing Workshop in Welshpool, Western Australia.

This purpose-built facility will significantly enhance the company’s service capabilities for distribution and small power transformers, catering units up to 30MVA/132kV.

Hitachi Energy is committed to addressing operations reliability, performance, and cost-effectiveness in today’s dynamic energy landscape. This new Service workshop, located 6 km away from Perth’s airport, spans over 4,000 square meters and is ready to serve the complete transformer service portfolio from transformers repairs, refurbishments, retrofits and modifications to specialist services, including oil treatment and testing delivered on-demand or under the recently launched EnCompass™ Service Agreements, an optimal framework for cutting complexity, controlling cost, and maximizing asset value.

Transformers are critical assets, and their unexpected failures can lead to production interruptions, lost revenue, and increased repair costs. “With the largest OEM database in the transformer industry, our service team offers a comprehensive range of solutions to enhance reliability, minimize downtime, and manage the risks associated with aging transformers, tailored to the unique needs of our customers in the challenging Australian power landscape,” said Bernard Norton, Country Managing Director, Hitachi Energy Australia. “We are honored to be our customers’ go-to trusted partner throughout the transformers life cycle in Australia and globally,” concluded Norton.
