About Transformer Lead Times
The dated, sourced record of how long transformers take.
Everyone in the power business quotes a transformer lead time, and most of them quote the same one number without a date. This site keeps the whole series instead: 60 readings from 2010 to now, each with the period it describes, the publisher, the sentence it came from and the day we read it, plus 27 manufacturers and the capacity they are adding.
It is built for the people who plan around the wait: data center developers, utilities, EPCs, procurement teams and the analysts and journalists who cover them. The data is free under CC BY 4.0, so cite it, chart it and build on it.
Transformer Lead Times is published by Beundra AB, Sweden. Corrections, new readings and press questions: desk@transformerleadtimes.com. See the methodology for how every reading is chosen and charted.
