The new facility in Brookshire, scheduled to open in October 2024, will be located near TMEIC’s existing plant in Katy, Texas, where uninterruptible power supplies and medium-voltage drives are manufactured. With an initial production capacity of 9 GW per year, this plant will be equipped for expansion based on market demands.
