Array Technologies has finalized its $50 million plans to expand with a new manufacturing campus in Bernalillo County, NM. The 22-acre expansion is projected to hire nearly 100 new employees in the following years, according to Array Technologies.
"Array Technologies expands in NM," said the company's press release.
The company has chosen a site on Albuquerque's western side for the establishment of a new 216,000-square-foot campus. The commencement of construction for this facility is expected in early 2024. According to Array Technologies, the expansion project will foster job creation across different sectors such as production, assembly, design, engineering and customer service. Salaries will range from $35,000 up to $127,000. Over ten years, the project is estimated to have an economic impact of over $300 million and generate 75 construction jobs.
