A manufacturer of charging stations for electric vehicles will open a new manufacturing facility in Durham County.
The Finland-headquartered Kempower Inc. will invest $41.2 million into its new facility, and plans to create 300 jobs, according to a statement released on Tuesday by North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper.
Jobs will pay average annual salaries of $88,440 by the third year of the project, the statement noted.
It’s the latest economic development project connected to the state’s rapidly-expanding clean energy economy, which Governor Cooper highlighted in the statement.
