I’m seeing this exact thing in my industry. I work in the industrial chemical sector on the gulf coast and lead time on a 3-phase transformer bank (pole mounted) is 10-12 months! Not too long ago it was about 1-2 months and now we’re being forced to get very creative. It’s the same story with a prefabricated substation we are procuring that has a lead time of about 80 weeks. It has made my job quite difficult and will not stop if the push for electrification continues without any reality. Thanks for your reporting, sir!

Good article describing what is in store for us over the next few years. It prove once again, bureaucracy is not your friend. The overzealous scheme to save a particle of carbon at any price is the most fiscally destructive mythology our world has ever seen, better said as 'the most fiscally destruct the public has yet to grasp. If we did see it, our voting pattern might be altered a bit. And we'd see Al Gore on the comer with a tin cup.
