Cooperative-owned US maker of oil-filled distribution transformers: single- and three-phase pad-mount and pole-mount units for utilities and co-ops. Its Spire Power Solutions unit adds the Power Partners, Pioneer, Jefferson Electric and V&F brands.
Facts
Source per value- Segment Power when the maker publishes power, GSU, HVDC, autotransformer or reactor products or a rating above 20 MVA; Distribution when it publishes distribution, pad-mount, pole-mount, network or dry-type products; both when it publishes each. Derived from Transformer types and Largest rating.
- Distribution 1
- Transformer types Product types the maker lists, separated by semicolons: power, GSU, autotransformer, HVDC, shunt reactor, substation, distribution, pad-mount, pole-mount, network, dry-type (cast resin, VPI), mobile, rectifier/industrial, renewable and data center lines.
- distribution; pad-mount; pole-mount; dry-type 1
- Largest rating MVA Largest verified published rating in the cited product or regional scope, in MVA. Product range identifies base, forced-cooling, phase-shifter throughput or group-history claims; these rating bases are not interchangeable. Planned future ranges are described separately.
- Not published
- Smallest rating kVA Smallest published rating, in kVA. Shows how far down the distribution range a maker goes.
- Not published
- Product range The kVA/MVA range as the maker states it, by product line.
- Three-phase oil-filled padmount range: 30-3,000 kVA; single-phase padmount and polemount products; group dry-type products through Spire 4
- Highest voltage kV Highest voltage class the maker publishes or has delivered, in kV (AC system voltage; HVDC noted under Voltage classes).
- Not published
- Voltage classes Voltage classes and BIL as the source states them, by product or plant.
- Three-phase padmount primary 2.4-35 kV (150 kV BIL), secondary up to 600 V 4
- Plants Transformer manufacturing locations, city and country. Planned plants carry their target date. Location lists identify verified sites and may not cover every factory in a global group.
- Dyersburg, Tennessee, United States; Greeneville, Tennessee, United States (components); Bristol, Wisconsin, United States; Athens, Georgia, United States; Reynosa, Mexico; Maricopa County, Arizona, United States (planned 2027) 1
- Plant countries Countries with verified operating transformer manufacturing in the cited scope; not necessarily the complete global footprint. Component and service-only sites do not establish new-unit manufacturing.
- United States; Mexico 2
- US plant Yes when an operating US transformer plant is verified; No when the source shows the maker's plants and none is in the US. Empty means not verified.
- Yes 2
- EU plant Yes when an operating transformer plant in an EU-27 country is verified (the UK, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey do not count). Empty means not verified.
- Not published
- Capacity expansion Announced transformer capacity expansions: amount in the original currency, place, announcement date, target date and output change. US and EU projects first.
- New 566,121 sq ft three-phase transformer plant about 30 miles west of Phoenix, Arizona, production 2027, 541 jobs; added production at Dyersburg, Tennessee and Athens, Georgia; 158,000 sq ft Bristol, Wisconsin facility acquired 2025 2
- Largest US/EU expansion $M Largest single announced US or EU transformer capacity investment, in US$ millions, where the source states a dollar amount. Euro amounts stay in Capacity expansion unconverted.
- Not published
- Expansion region Where the announced capacity expansions are: US, EU, both, or only elsewhere (Other).
