Eaton is investing $22M in equipment at its Waukesha, Wisconsin, facility to increase manufacturing capacity of three-phase transformers for utility, data center, large commercial and industrial applications. Eaton's equipment provides vital functionality to support electric grid resilience, renewable energy projects and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released applicant self-disclosed information for 22 projects across 17 states that voluntarily shared with DOE that they received a total of nearly $1 billion in allocations from the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit (48C). Nine of the self-disclosed projects indicated they are located in 48C energy communities – communities with closed coal mines or coal plants—showcasing the Biden Administration’s commitment to investing in America’s energy communities.
