Eaton announced a $340 million investment to establish a new manufacturing site in Jonesville, South Carolina, dedicated to increasing U.S. production of its three-phase transformers. These transformers are essential for reliable electrical power in utility, large commercial, industrial, and data center applications.
Production and hiring at the new facility are expected to commence in 2027, with the project anticipated to create 700 new jobs. This investment directly addresses the critical shortage of transformers and aims to meet record demand for Eaton's solutions.
The new facility will complement Eaton's existing transformer manufacturing operations in Wisconsin and Texas. This strategic expansion reinforces Eaton's commitment to supporting grid modernization, electrification, and industrialization across the U.S. with high-efficiency products.
