Powering
the great
future
A new U.S. manufacturing hub for medium and large power transformers, planned in Gaffney, South Carolina.
Built for the next generation of power
LIMIK is developing a U.S. manufacturing facility for medium and large power transformers — supporting utilities, generation, grid
infrastructure and major energy projects.
The planned facility combines transformer engineering, manufacturing, assembly and full-scale testing in one industrial location.

Powering
the Southeast
LIMIK’s planned factory in Gaffney, South Carolina, would serve the Southeast’s utilities, data centers and industrial projects. Regional production offers opportunities to create skilled jobs, strengthen domestic supply chains and reduce long-distance transport costs.
Manufacturing closer to customers could also lower delivery-related costs and emissions, while supplying the transformers needed for grid modernization and industrial electrification.
Transformer factory
The planned facility will transform an existing industrial site into a dedicated manufacturing environment for medium and large power transformers.
The project team is coordinating with economic development authorities on available incentives and support.
