Overview

How we help in power & grid infrastructure

Utilities across North America and abroad are replacing aging equipment and adding capacity for electrification, renewables and data centres. Key equipment like power transformers and switchgear can be difficult to secure on project timelines.

Meridian North helps buyers find new and surplus substation and distribution equipment from verified manufacturers, distributors and project owners, and helps owners of unused or excess equipment put it back into service.
