In a significant boost to U.S. manufacturing and technological innovation Siemens the global technology giant announced plans to invest $285 million in new manufacturing facilities in Texas and California. This investment is part of Siemens’ broader commitment to the U.S. its largest market and aligns with the company’s strategy to strengthen America’s industrial and AI capabilities.
Expanding U.S. Manufacturing Footprint
Siemens will open two new manufacturing facilities in Fort Worth, Texas, and Pomona, California dedicated to producing electrical products. These facilities are expected to create over 900 skilled manufacturing jobs supporting the U.S. commercial, industrial and construction sectors. The new plants will also play a crucial role in powering AI data centers addressing the growing demand for advanced infrastructure in the AI and tech industries.
Roland Busch, President and CEO of Siemens AG, highlighted the company’s long-term commitment to the U.S., stating, “We believe in the innovation and strength of America’s industry. That’s why Siemens has invested over 90billioninthecountryinthelast20years.Thisyear’sinvestmentwillbringthisnumbertoover90billioninthecountryinthelast20years.Thisyear’sinvestmentwillbringthisnumbertoover100 billion.”
A Boost for U.S. AI and Industrial Capabilities
The investment is part of Siemens’ broader strategy to drive innovation and sustainability in the U.S. The company’s focus on expanding its manufacturing capabilities and integrating advanced technologies, such as AI, underscores its commitment to supporting America’s industrial growth.
Siemens’ announcement comes on the heels of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC)’s plans to invest an additional $100 billion in the U.S., further solidifying the country’s position as a global hub for semiconductor and technology manufacturing.
Strengthening America’s Industrial Ecosystem
The new facilities in Texas and California will enhance Siemens’ ability to deliver high-quality electrical products tailored to the needs of U.S. customers. By localizing production, Siemens aims to improve supply chain efficiency, reduce lead times, and support the growing demand for advanced infrastructure in sectors such as construction, manufacturing, and AI.
In addition to its manufacturing investments, Siemens is also expanding its technological capabilities through the planned acquisition of Altair, a Michigan-based software company. This acquisition, along with the new manufacturing facilities, represents more than $10 billion in recent and planned investments in the U.S.
A Vision for the Future
Siemens’ investment reflects its confidence in the U.S. as a key driver of global innovation and industrial growth. By creating jobs, advancing technology, and supporting sustainability initiatives, Siemens is contributing to the development of a robust and resilient industrial ecosystem in the U.S.
Roland Busch emphasized the broader impact of Siemens’ investments, stating, “We are bringing more jobs, more technology, and a boost to America’s AI capabilities.”
Driving Innovation and Sustainability
The new manufacturing facilities will not only support economic growth but also align with Siemens’ commitment to sustainability. By producing energy-efficient electrical products and supporting the development of AI infrastructure, Siemens is helping to drive the transition to a more sustainable and technologically advanced future.
Conclusion
Siemens’ $285 million investment in U.S. manufacturing marks a significant milestone in the company’s long-standing commitment to America’s industrial and technological advancement. With the creation of over 900 skilled jobs and the expansion of its manufacturing capabilities, Siemens is poised to play a pivotal role in strengthening the U.S. economy and driving innovation in key sectors such as AI, construction, and manufacturing.
As Siemens continues to invest in the U.S., its efforts will not only support local communities but also reinforce America’s position as a global leader in technology and industrial innovation.
