US listed power management company, Eaton Corporation, will expand into Myanmar to provide technology solutions through a partnership with Myanmar Golden Rock International Co (MGR)

US-listed power management company Eaton Corporation announced its expansion into the Myanmar market through a partnership with Myanmar Golden Rock International Co (MGR), which provides technology solutions in the country, on Septemer 18. 

Together with MGR, Eaton will bring its expertise in power management technologies to the data center, healthcare, utilities and commercial building sectors with the aim of improving the reliability of existing and newly-developed power generation, transmission and distribution infrastructure in the country.

Kidsada Santisak, Eaton country manager for Indochina West, said Myanmar displays growth potential in the power and energy market, with only a third of the country’s population currently enjoying access to a stable supply of electricity. 

“Demand for power and energy solutions will only grow as the country races towards electrifying 100 percent of Myanmar households, the primary goal set out in the Myanmar National Electrification Plan,” he said. 

Eaton is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and headquartered in Ireland. The company registered sales of US$20.4 billion in 2017 and employs some 96,000 globally.
