WEG delivered a 40/60/75MVA, 161/13.8kV GSU power transformer to the Basin Creek Power Plant located in Butte, MT - USA. The transformer was sold to Caterpillar Power Generation Systems, a division of Caterpillar Motoren GmbH & Co.

WEG has further advanced its position as a leading global supplier of power transformers, with the inauguration of a new state-of-the-art transformer manufacturing plant in Mexico. Officially opened on April 14th 2010, the new plant is sited adjacent to WEG’s existing motor plant, which manufactures low and medium voltage motors, generators and control panels for automation systems.

Partnership resulted in the development of high-technology solutions to supply more energy to Paraguay.

Eskom, the state owned electricity utility company of South Africa, counted on WEG transformers to illuminate the FIFA World Cup 2010
