EnergyTek Corporation has announced plans to invest at least $275 million in a new manufacturing facility in Moultrie, Colquitt County. The company expects the operation to create 1,300 jobs once it reaches full capacity after a multi-year ramp up.
The facility will produce utility scale and commercial solar panels, inverters, electric vehicle charging systems, micro grids, and other renewable energy components. Construction of the first phase is scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2025. The site is located within Citizen Business Park, which has been designated as a “Georgia Ready for Accelerated Development” (GRAD) site.
“Georgia’s commitment to innovation continues to attract companies like EnergyTek that are investing and creating good jobs in every corner of our state,” said Georgia Department of Economic Development Commissioner Pat Wilson. “We congratulate our partners in Colquitt County on this important milestone for the Citizen Business Park.”
Dr. Cristian Toma, CEO of EnergyTek, stated: “Through this multi-phase investment, EnergyTek will be able to manufacture multiple aspects of the energy and electrification supply chain, simplifying vertical integration. Georgia’s industrial ecosystem and world-class logistics will support efficient distribution and supply chain integration as EnergyTek scales up production in Moultrie over the next few years.”
Hiring for management, engineering, production, and administrative positions is expected over the coming years. More information about career opportunities can be found at www.energytekcorp.com.
Chairman Ross Dekle of the Moultrie-Colquitt County Development Authority commented: “We are honored that EnergyTek has chosen Moultrie and Colquitt County as the site of its new manufacturing facility. This significant investment will create high-quality, well-compensated manufacturing jobs for our residents and represents a meaningful contribution to the continued growth and prosperity of our community.”
Tina Herring from the Georgia Department of Economic Development led efforts on this project alongside local authorities including the Moultrie-Colquitt County Development Authority, City of Moultrie, Georgia Power, and Georgia Quick Start.
