Intelligent power management company Eaton announced the successful completion of a $100 million expansion project at its Nacogdoches, Texas manufacturing facility. The Eaton investment more than doubles its U.S. production capacity of voltage regulators and three-phase transformers, meeting growing global demand for the company’s solutions accelerating grid modernization.

To mark the milestone, Eaton welcomed representatives from Oncor, Texas’ largest energy delivery company, at its Nacogdoches facility. Oncor will receive the first shipment of voltage regulators from the new production lines.

“Having worked with Oncor for decades as both a valued customer and trusted collaborator, our organization is extremely grateful for their support,” said Guillaume Laur, Eaton senior vice president – Power Delivery and Regulation. “It is an honor to see our grid modernization solutions immediately being put to work in our community – and soon around the world – to help advance energy resilience, reliability and security.”

The project, launched in 2023, added 200,000-square-feet to Eaton’s Nacogdoches facility. The expanded manufacturing capacity strengthens Eaton’s position as one of the world’s largest suppliers of voltage regulators and capacitors, significantly boosting its U.S.-based manufacturing capabilities to serve both domestic and global customers.

Since 2023, Eaton has invested more than $1 billion in its North American manufacturing to advance electrification, the energy transition and digitalization across industries. Learn more about how Eaton is helping utilities design, build and operate a smart, modern electrical grid.
