Jabil to Build Siemens Switchgear in Prince George, Virginia

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger announced on May 27 that Jabil will establish a new manufacturing site at Crosspointe Logistics Center in Prince George County to produce critical power distribution systems for Siemens. The facility is scheduled to open in fall 2026 and is expected to create 352 new jobs.

300,000-square-foot facility

According to Siemens, the 300,000-square-foot facility operated by Jabil will produce medium-voltage switchgear and integrated power distribution solutions for data center, utility and industrial customers. Siemens said a $30 million investment will go toward scaling up equipment, tooling, production readiness and operations at the site. The state release cites Jabil’s $6.1 million investment, supported by a $700,000 Commonwealth’s Opportunity Fund grant to Prince George County.

Expanding U.S. power infrastructure capacity

The project adds capacity as demand for power infrastructure accelerates, driven by data centers and electrification. Siemens recently reached a $1 billion U.S. manufacturing investment milestone.

Brent Tompkins, SVP of Global Business Units, Renewables & Energy Infrastructure at Jabil said:

“With this new factory in Prince George County, we’re excited to scale our capabilities, continue growing our domestic manufacturing footprint, and help create new jobs in collaboration with Siemens.”

Brian Dula, President of Electrification and Automation, Siemens Smart Infrastructure USA said:

“We’re proud to be collaborating with Jabil to stand up the new Prince George facility which will be home to hundreds of new jobs for the state of Virginia.”

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger said:

“This investment will bring hundreds of high-quality jobs to the Commonwealth while strengthening our domestic supply chain to support next-generation energy technology.”
