We are always asking our customers what they need today and what they will need in the future, and then we set out to find or build a solution for them. It is impossible for us to address our industry’s needs by ourselves, so we are constantly adding talent to our team and always keeping our customers’ needs at the forefront.
We like technology and how it solves customer needs. Designing and producing electrical power equipment and helping to build the modern grid involves many of the most challenging technical and environmental problems on earth. We love working together with engineers across companies and around the world, coming up with and developing new and innovative solutions.
