HILLTOPGRID SOLUTIONS

Shorter lead times.
70 years of manufacturing.

Hilltop Grid Solutions brings Marsons’ seven decades of manufacturing to the U.S. and Canada. With 12,000 MVA of annual capacity, expanding to 26,000 MVA, we offer direct factory access and a coordinated path from engineering to delivery.

Lead time is confirmed for each order in the quotation.

More capacity.
A shorter order path.

Solar, storage, data centers and grid renewal are putting pressure on transformer supply. Hilltop connects North American buyers directly with Marsons’ expanding production capacity.

Engineering, procurement, manufacturing and logistics are coordinated from the outset. Work proceeds in parallel where possible, and testing takes place at the factory.

Discuss availability and delivery
Engineering and procurement in parallel
U.S.-format drawings and guaranteed technical particulars are issued early, so approvals can progress while materials are ordered.
One integrated works, one schedule
Design, core production, windings, tanks, assembly and testing are brought together at the Kolkata works.
In-house testing
Routine and impulse tests run in Marsons’ NABL-accredited laboratory, without an outside laboratory queue.
Freight planned with production
Shipping is booked against the manufacturing schedule, with nitrogen-filled transport and impact recording to a U.S. East, Gulf or West Coast port.

70 years of building transformers.

Marsons has manufactured power transformers in Kolkata for seven decades, supplying utilities and power producers on critical circuits. It is Eastern India’s largest extra-high-voltage transformer manufacturer by installed capacity.

Hilltop brings that manufacturing base to North America through a joint venture with Cleanhill Partners: one accountable team from quotation through commissioning, with a direct connection to the factory.
