TMC invests $15.3M to build new transformer manufacturing facility in Georgia
TMC Transformers USA Inc. has announced plans to open a new manufacturing facility in Waynesboro, Georgia. The company, which specializes in dry-type transformer solutions, will invest $15.3 million into the project, generating 110 new jobs for the surrounding area. The new plant is expected to be operational in 2026.
What people are saying
In a recent quote, Cristiano Palladini, President of TMC USA, said, “Combining our expertise in the dry-type transformer industry with the needs of the U.S. market for accessible, reliable, and sustainable energy, the launch of the new plant highlights TMC’s strategic plans for substantial growth in North America. We’re excited that Waynesboro will become a welcoming base for us. Georgia provides strong foundations for our business with its strategic position, the full support from Burke County and the Georgia delegation who share a business-oriented vision, and its community of hardworking and skilled Georgians in line with our needs.”
Governor Brian Kemp added, “When we lead economic missions overseas and meet with companies like TMC, we do so to bring more opportunities back to hardworking Georgians, and so job creators like them can build a strong foundation alongside communities like Waynesboro. TMC’s decision to create over 100 well-paying jobs in Burke County comes at a critical time, and we look forward to their impact as that region of our state continues to recover and rebuild following the recent hurricanes.”
