Siemens and Jabil Inc. recently announced plans to operate a new manufacturing facility at the Crosspointe Logistics Center in Prince George County, Va., supporting the energy infrastructure industry.

As demand for power infrastructure continues to accelerate, particularly driven by rapid growth in data centers and electrification, this investment will help expand capacity and increase how quickly new infrastructure can be brought online. The Prince George facility, operated by Jabil, will feature approximately 300,000-square-feet of modern industrial space, allowing Siemens to expand U.S. production capacity for its medium-voltage switchgear and integrated power delivery solutions. This facility will expedite the availability of critical equipment needed to energize new infrastructure.

The $30 million investment will go towards scaling-up equipment, tooling, production readiness and operations at the Virginia site. The facility will produce the advanced systems and solutions necessary to protect, control and safely operate equipment in data center, utility, and industrial power generation and distribution applications. With production slated to begin in fall 2026, the Prince George facility is expected to add at least 350 jobs once operational.

“Our data center, utility and industrial customers are under intense pressure to add capacity quickly, with less risk and more predictability,” said Brian Dula, President of the Electrification and Automation business unit at Siemens Smart Infrastructure USA. “By adding additional avenues to expand dedicated manufacturing of Siemens‑designed switchgear and power delivery solutions here in the U.S., we’re helping customers shorten project timelines and improve delivery confidence — while reinforcing a resilient domestic supply chain.”

“Our new Prince George facility will help us build the energy management solutions Siemens needs to meet customers’ growing power requirements with greater speed and scale,” said Brent Tompkins, SVP, Global Business Units, Renewables and Energy Infrastructure, at Jabil. “We’re proud to collaborate with Siemens to expand Jabil’s capabilities within the United States and enable the world’s most important technologies.”

Recently achieving a $1 billion manufacturing investment milestone, this expansion reflects Siemens’ continued focus on strengthening domestic supply chains, reindustrializing the U.S. and adding capacity to meet accelerating demand for critical power infrastructure. This will allow Siemens to expand its leadership position in the electrification of data centers and the related grid infrastructure. For Jabil, this investment adds to the company’s growing U.S. manufacturing footprint, spanning more than 30 sites with proven experience and investments in automation, robotics, and process optimization to support production at scale across industries.

Jabil is one of the world’s largest manufacturing solutions providers and has worked with Siemens across the globe for numerous years, supporting high standards for quality and delivery performance. The Prince George collaboration builds on that foundation to help Siemens scale production in the U.S. while maintaining rigorous oversight and adherence to Siemens’ specifications and quality requirements, delivering essential power infrastructure at the pace demand now requires.
