GE’s QL Ultra Efficient transformer is a low-voltage, dry-type distribution transformer that lowers electrical voltage to usable levels in commercial and industrial applications. The QL Ultra Efficient transformer incorporates a high efficiency steel core, which makes these GE transformers more efficient than standard TP-1 designed transformers. This helps to reduce electricity loss, which results in lower electricity cost and associated CO2 emissions on the power grid.

Environmental Benefits
GE's QL Ultra Efficient transformers are more energy efficient than TP-1 designed transformers. For example, a 70,000 sq ft elementary school could avoid up to 15 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually on the U.S. grid by using GE's QL Ultra Efficient transformers instead of TP-1 designed transformers, equivalent to the CO2 absorbed by over 4 acres of southeastern U.S. forest per year.
Operating Benefits
GE's QL Ultra Efficient transformers are more energy efficient than TP-1 designed transformers. For example, a 70,000 sq ft elementary school could save over $2,500 in annual electricity costs by using GE's QL Ultra Efficient transformers instead of TP-1 designed transformers, assuming an electricity price of $0.10 per kWh.
