A Practical Guide for Utility, EPC, and Industrial Buyers When sourcing power transformers for utility networks, renewable energy projects, or industrial substations, German buyers are traditionally associated with domestic or European manufacturers. Germany is known for engineering excellence, strict technical standards, and conservative procurement practices. However, in recent years, an important question has emerged in the global power equipment market: Do German companies buy power transformers from China? The short answer is: Yes — increasingly, and for very practical reasons.The long answer is more nuanced, technical, and procurement-driven. That is exactly what this article explains. 1. Germany’s Transformer Demand Is Growing — and Changing Germany’s energy landscape is undergoing a […]
As Europe accelerates energy transition, grid modernization, and industrial electrification, the demand for reliable power transformers continues to grow across Germany, France, and neighboring EU countries. At the same time, rising manufacturing costs and longer lead times in Europe have pushed many utilities, EPC contractors, and industrial users to look beyond traditional suppliers. China has become one of the world’s most important manufacturing hubs for power transformers, offering strong engineering capability, competitive pricing, and scalable production. However, for many European buyers, especially in Germany and France, sourcing transformers from China still raises practical questions related to standards, quality, compliance, logistics, and long-term reliability. This article provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide […]
