Eaton gains $1.3M tax credit for investments in Waukesha, Wisconsin, manufacturing

At the company’s largest Wisconsin manufacturing facility in Waukesha, Eaton is investing $22 million in equipment to increase manufacturing capacity of three-phase transformers for utility, data center, large commercial and industrial applications. Eaton is working closely with Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC) on curriculum and has constructed a dedicated training center where students can gain direct experience producing critical grid modernization solutions.

“In Wisconsin, we make things. We make cheese, we make ships, we make paper, and now, we are making what is needed to power the clean energy future,” said Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI). “I was proud to vote for the Inflation Reduction Act and make investments like this that will create more family-supporting jobs and strengthen the pipeline of workers that will build the next chapter of Made in Wisconsin manufacturing.”

“Waukesha County Technical College is fortunate to have an incredibly collaborative industry partnership with Eaton that is only getting stronger,” said Rich Barnhouse, Ph.D., president of WCTC. “Eaton is a steadfast supporter of technical education, and by working in tandem, we are able to develop and implement programs and trainings that lead to workforce solutions in our region, therefore lessening the skills gap.”
