<p>Chapel Hill, North Carolina-based solar and renewable energy provider <a href="https://www.voltageenergy.com/">Voltage Energy Group</a> has announced its plans to establish a new global headquarters facility in Roxboro, North Carolina.</p>

<p>The company is set to acquire and upgrade a 72-acre facility complete with just over 246,000 square feet of manufacturing space, representatives say. The move to Roxboro, about 40 miles north of Chapel Hill, strengthens Voltage Energy&#8217;s strong foundation in the the Tar Heel State, according to chief technology officer Bob Slack. </p>

<p>&#8220;North Carolina has always been the foundation of Voltage Energy,&#8221; Slack says. &#8220;By expanding our manufacturing footprint and planning for our future Global Headquarters here, we are reinforcing our commitment to customers, partners, and the local community while supporting the long-term growth of the clean energy sector.&#8221;</p>

<p>Since its foundign in 2015, Voltage Energy has focused mainly on <a href="https://solarbuildermag.com/utility-scale-solar/solar-continues-domination-of-new-energy-capacity-additions-per-ferc-data/">utility-scale solar projects</a> and electrical balance of systems <a href="https://solarbuildermag.com/featured/cable-hangers-connectors-and-condoms-ebos-innovations-seen-at-re-2025/">(eBOS) solutions</a>. While the company also has a European office in Frankfurt, Germany, the establishment of a global headquarters in North Carolina reflects its &#8220;long-standing strategy of building and scaling its global operations from its American roots.&#8221;</p>

<p>The facility is expected to create new jobs and support the local economy. In an effort to realize its long-term plan for the site, Voltage will maintain an &#8220;elevated level of investment&#8221; in the Roxboro community over the next three years, officials say.</p>

<p>Voltage Energy&#8217;s move was met with a warm reception from the local community, including Kyle Puryear, the chairman of the <a href="https://www.personcountync.gov/government/departments-a-h/county-commissioners/county-commissioners">Person County Board of Commissioners</a>. The move is expected to strengthen the local manufacturing and renewable energy scene in and around northern North Carolina, with Voltage demonstrating &#8220;consistent year over year growth&#8221; during its time in Chapel Hill.</p>

<p>&#8220;We are grateful that Voltage has chosen our county as the home for its operations, and we look forward to a long and successful partnership,&#8221; says Puryear. &#8220;The company&#8217;s presence will create quality jobs, strengthen our tax base, and contribute to our ongoing efforts to attract innovative industries for a diversified manufacturing sector that is needed to bolster our local economy.&#8221;</p>

<p>Roxboro mayor Cynthia Petty also extended a warm welcome to the group, saying she is &#8220;committed to working with and supporting Voltage in any way possible.&#8221;</p>

<p>Voltage will also be working in the local educational community, according to Jody Blackwell, the dean of technical and manufacturing programs at <a href="https://piedmontcc.edu/">Piedmont Community College</a>. The new ability will be near the school&#8217;s main campus, she says, and will bring &#8220;fresh opportunities and a new energy&#8221; to the area.</p>

<p>&#8220;This new presence will strengthen the partnership we have with local industry and create additional pathways for student training, employment, and community growth,&#8221; Blackwell says. &#8220;We are fortunate that they chose Person County and are excited to offer support to them as we begin this new partnership.&#8221; </p>
