Eaton Opens $100M Expansion in Nacogdoches, Texas
Eaton has completed a $100 million expansion of its manufacturing facility in Nacogdoches, Texas, adding 200,000 square feet of production space. The expansion increases the company's U.S. manufacturing capacity for voltage regulators and three-phase transformers.
The first equipment from the expanded facility is being delivered to Oncor, Texas' largest energy delivery company. Representatives from Oncor joined Eaton staff at the site to mark the beginning of production.
According to Guillaume Laur, Eaton Senior Vice President - Power Delivery and Regulation, the added capacity is intended to support growing demand for equipment used in grid infrastructure projects.
The Nacogdoches expansion is part of more than $1 billion in manufacturing investments made by Eaton in North America since 2023. These investments aim to support changes in the energy sector, including electrification, grid modernization, and digitalization.
The facility will manufacture equipment used by utilities in the design and operation of electrical grids across both U.S. and international markets.
