Posted September 18, 2025

​

Northern Transformer Corporation (NTC), a leading Canadian manufacturer of high-voltage power transformers, announced this morning a $207 million investment to establish a new, state-of-the-art facility in Innisfil. Ontario is providing $10.5 million in funding through the Invest Ontario Fund.

 

This investment marks NTC’s entrance into the large power transformer market, creating 151 new jobs.

 

NTC’s investment will increase Ontario’s capacity to support grid modernization and electrification initiatives across North America.

​

“We’re proud to expand our footprint in Ontario to meet the rising demand for mission-critical large power transformers across North America,” said Alexei Miecznikowski, President and CEO of Northern Transformer Corporation. “This investment not only boosts our production capacity and technical capabilities, but also drives job creation, innovation and supply chain growth in the region.”

​

Once operational, NTC’s new facility will manufacture and test high-voltage transformers with power handling capabilities of up to 500kV and 750MVA, critical to supporting large-scale industrial projects, including data centres, mining operations and steel manufacturing.

 

NTC’s new transformer lines will source wiring, insulation and electrical steel from Ontario-based suppliers, bolstering resilience, protecting jobs and fueling competitiveness across the province’s economy.​​
