Siemens and Jabil will open a 300,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Prince George County, Virginia, to accelerate production of medium-voltage switchgear and power delivery solutions for data centers and grid infrastructure.

Facility and investment details

The $30 million investment will equip the Crosspointe Logistics Center site with advanced tooling, automation, and production systems. Jabil will operate the facility, which is expected to begin production in fall 2026 and create at least 350 jobs. The plant will produce Siemens-designed switchgear and integrated power delivery solutions for data center, utility, and industrial applications.

Strategic rationale

Demand for electrical infrastructure is surging, driven by rapid data center expansion and broader electrification trends. Siemens’ customers face intense pressure to add capacity quickly while reducing project risk and delivery uncertainty. The new facility is designed to shorten project timelines and improve delivery confidence by adding dedicated U.S. production capacity for critical medium-voltage equipment.

Supply chain and partnership context

This expansion marks Siemens’ recent achievement of a $1 billion manufacturing investment milestone, reinforcing its commitment to domestic supply chain resilience. Jabil, a global manufacturing solutions provider with over 30 U.S. sites, brings proven expertise in automation, robotics, and process optimization. The collaboration builds on a long-standing partnership, ensuring rigorous adherence to Siemens’ specifications and quality standards.

Forward-looking significance

The Prince George facility represents a strategic response to accelerating infrastructure demand, combining Siemens’ design leadership with Jabil’s scalable manufacturing capabilities. By expanding U.S. production of essential power delivery equipment, this partnership directly supports the reindustrialization of critical energy supply chains and positions both companies to meet the growing needs of data centers and grid modernization for the foreseeable future.
