The same equipment shortage behind AI data centers is reshaping procurement across every industry that buys transformers, generators, turbines, switchgear and battery storage systems. Pick your equipment and sector below.
Equipment Intelligence tracks the high-voltage equipment that sets project timelines, industry by industry: power transformers, switchgear and the components behind them. For each sector, we look at what is in short supply, which manufacturers can still deliver, and how procurement should be planned around the grid connection. It is written for data center developers, industrial sites and energy projects that cannot afford to discover a lead time once the design is frozen. Start with power transformer lead times in 2026, HV transformer lead times in Europe and our equipment audit.
