Schneider Electric Infrastructure to Expand Transformer Manufacturing Capacity

Schneider Electric Infrastructure Ltd (SEIL) has announced plans of expanding its transformer manufacturing capacity.

In a regulatory filing, SEIL said that the company's board of directors in a meeting on February 11, 2025, approved the plan to enhance the existing manufacturing capacity of medium power transformers.

SEIL would be investing Rs.13.6 crore, to be financed through internal accruals and/or borrowings, to expand the manufacturing capacity of medium power transformers by 1,500 MVA per year.

The objective of the capacity expansion plan is "to meet market demand and growth ambition" of the company's Medium Power Transformer business, the filing said.

Schneider Electric Infrastructure manufactures transformers at its plant located at Vadodara in Gujarat. According to the plan, the existing capacity of 5,500 MVA would be enhanced to 7,000 MVA, by end of FY26 (i.e. March 31, 2026).
