Siemens and Jabil Inc. have announced plans to operate a new manufacturing facility at the Crosspointe Logistics Center in Prince George County, VA, supporting the energy infrastructure industry. The Prince George facility, operated by Jabil, will feature approximately 300,000-sq.-ft. of modern industrial space, allowing Siemens to expand U.S. production capacity for its medium-voltage switchgear and integrated power delivery solutions. 

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,” says 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,” says Brent Tompkins, senior vice president, 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’ focus on strengthening domestic supply chains, reindustrializing the U.S. and adding capacity to meet demand for 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.

Jabil is a large manufacturing solutions provider and has worked with Siemens across the globe for numerous years. The Prince George collaboration builds on that foundation to help Siemens scale production in the U.S.
