The new facility in Roxboro will cover 72 acres, featuring a robust production area of approximately 246,079 square feet, set to bolster the company’s manufacturing capabilities significantly.
Commitment to Local Communities
As Voltage Energy moves forward with its expansion, it aims not only to enhance its manufacturing base but also to create numerous job opportunities for the local workforce. The company’s commitment to sustainable operations will likely bring substantial economic benefits to the Person County area, generating employment and stimulating local businesses through increased economic activity.
Bob Slack, the Chief Technology Officer of Voltage Energy, emphasized the company’s long-standing relationship with North Carolina, stating, "This expansion highlights our dedication to our customers, partners, and the surrounding communities while supporting the ongoing growth of the clean energy sector."
In support of this expansion plan, the local authorities have expressed their enthusiasm for Voltage Energy’s investment in the Roxboro area.

Their commitment to collaboration will benefit our students and the broader region."
A Bright Future Ahead
Looking ahead, Voltage Energy is planning to maintain a high level of investment over the next three years to ensure that its operations continue to expand and deliver lasting economic and community benefits. As the facility in Roxboro prepares to commence operations, it is expected to become a model for sustainable business practices and community engagement in the clean energy field.
In conclusion, Voltage Energy's planned global headquarters in Roxboro marks a significant milestone not just for the company, but for the region as a whole.
