12 | Major problems/prospects | Transformer industry is undergoing a major growth with power distribution making inroads into remote villages. With an increase in electricity supply in other developing countries, there could be large opportunities for the cluster. The cluster is working way below the installed capacity due to immense shortage of electricity. The units need latest technical knowledge and also advanced computerized machine for product designing and development. There is need for skill up-gradation of the labour force which can significantly add to productivity. The smaller units are still using the age old methods of production. This is restricting capability of large firms to outsource and expand the business. |
