GTI Energy plans to invest $33 million initially and invest another $20 million to open a 530,000-square-foot manufacturing facility at Lakin Park in Goodyear, Arizona. The strategic expansion is driven by increasing demand in the renewable energy and data center sectors. The new facility will initially create 250 new jobs, ramping up to 600 total jobs once fully operational in 2026.
The Goodyear facility will serve as GTI’s primary high-volume manufacturing site, equipped to handle the full production lifecycle — from raw steel processing and welding to electrical integration, battery installation, and end-of-line testing. It complements the company’s existing Phoenix facility, which focuses on energy storage system fabrication and prototype development.
Earlier this month, Apex Power Conversion, a solar and storage company, celebrated the ribbon cutting of its U.S. headquarters and manufacturing facility in Mesa.
Representing an over $60 million investment, the 206,000-square-foot facility will be expanded to manufacture advanced multi-megawatt power conversions, integrating renewables and energy storage with the grid.
