HISTORY

Established on January 1, 1986, Powerex is the result of a combination of two pioneers in the power semiconductor industry -- the Power Semiconductor Divisions of General Electric Company and Westinghouse Electric Corporation. With the idea of advancement toward the future, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation established an equity position in Powerex.

In 1994, Westinghouse sold its shares to General Electric and Mitsubishi Electric, which currently share equal ownership of Powerex. Powerex exclusively provides sales, marketing, strategy and logistics support for Mitsubishi Power Semiconductor devices in the Americas. This relationship with Mitsubishi, the world leader in IGBTs and IPMs (Intelligent Power Modules), allows Powerex to give its customers access to an established supply chain and cutting edge technology.
Powerex also manufactures a wide range of rectifier and thyristor products at its Youngwood, PA factory.

• Corporate Offices - Youngwood, Pennsylvania
• Manufacturing Facilities - 90,000 sq. ft.
• Office Area - 15,000 sq. ft.
• Warehousing/Distribution -15,000 sq. ft.
• Employees - 325

In addition to the Powerex manufacturing facility/corporate headquarters in Youngwood, PA, USA, Powerex also serves the global market via its manufacturing facility in Tangiers, Morocco.
