Transforming Power Grids for a Brighter Tomorrow

Our transformers are popular in areas with extreme weather conditions, where product reliability and versatility are paramount

Erratic weather conditions due to climate change are taking their toll on aging power grids in the U.S. and the rest of the Americas. Power surges and voltage spikes are knocking out weathered and outdated transformers, causing regular blackouts. Moreover, utilities are finding it increasingly difficult to quickly locate damage and restore power with their limited resources. Prolec—a Mexican company with more than 50 years of experience in the creation of comprehensive solutions to meet the needs of power generation, transmission, and distribution—is empowering utilities across the Americas to upgrade the power grid with innovative transformer solutions and electric components.

Prolec is known for developing some of the world’s most reliable transformers. The company has more than 50 years of experience in the industry and serves a client base across 35 countries. Its ability to design and manufacture transformers according to client requirements has firmly secured Prolec’s prominence across the Americas.

For companies investing in large renewable projects, Prolec ensures a quick and cost-effective transformer installation for seamless power generation and conversion. Customers benefit from its thermally efficient three-phase step-up transformers, optimized for significant energy savings. The company even ensures that its transformers are safe from seismic events, like earthquakes, through mechanical reinforcements.

“Our transformers are popular in areas with extreme weather conditions, where product reliability and versatility are paramount,” says Ricardo Suárez, CEO of Prolec.

Prolec is also known for its timely and effective inspection and maintenance services. To ensure seamless functioning after installation, the company conducts meticulous condition assessments to determine risks, increased load capacity, life extensions, or operating restrictions. Depending on the tests, the company’s technicians perform the required maintenance and servicing, including refurbishment and controls upgrades, to ensure the transformers run smoothly. Prolec’s customers enjoy a superior level of reliability and responsiveness.

These values, along with the company’s attention to detail, enable Prolec to exceed customer expectations every time.

The company is fueling this goal through acquisitions of new manufacturing facilities in the USA and Brazil. By diversifying its manufacturing centers and employing more efficient production methods, Prolec is enhancing the cost-effectiveness and quality of its offerings for the power generation, transmission and distribution sectors. At a time when power grids are aging and the world is in need of renewable energy, a foresighted company like Prolec is playing a prominent role in promoting technological and business transformation in the utilities sector.
