Dear Readers,
The January edition of Transformer Magazine opens the year with reflection, realism, and a forward-looking perspective. After a period of exceptional growth and sustained pressure across the industry, this issue focuses on what comes next: how the transformer sector adapts its strategies, technologies, and thinking to remain resilient in a more complex and demanding environment.
This interview looks ahead to Reinhausenβs next century as its managing directors discuss market responsibility, innovation, and MR's role in the global energy transition.
Modern power transformers operate with tighter electrical and thermal margins while utilities increasingly adopt natural and synthetic esters alongside mineral oils.
This column written by Transformer Magazine's Editor-in-Chief Mladen BanoviΔ examines lessons from past cycles, early warning signals now materialising, and the structural risks shaping the transformer industry.

This paper reviews the evolution of core and frame (clamp) insulation failures in power transformers and examines representative fault cases.
The paper presents the concept of temperature calculation in oil-immersed power transformers based on a detailed Thermal-Hydraulic Network Model (THNM).
Tony McGrail explores how convincing correlations can be misleading, especially when amplified by modern AI tools that confidently present weak or false causal links.
This article argues for adding an Embedded Carbon Declaration (ECD) that reports cradle-to-gate emissions and links to verified LCA/EPD data via QR code.
