nVent Electric plc, a global leader in electrical connection and protection solutions, today announced the lease of new manufacturing space in Goodyear, Ariz. The 400,000 square-foot site will expand nVent’s capacity to manufacture engineered buildings, including prefabricated electrical houses (e-houses), that help customers accelerate the deployment of critical power infrastructure for power utility, data center, industrial and other infrastructure applications. This new site is expected to begin production in mid-2027 and will employ more than 200 people once fully operational.

“Demand for our engineered building products continues to grow as customers invest in grid modernization, power reliability and other critical infrastructure projects,” said Sara Zawoyski, President, nVent Systems Protection. “This new facility expands our ability to serve customers with the speed, scale and technical expertise needed to support increasingly complex projects that require faster deployment and execution.”
This is the latest expansion to support growth in demand for nVent engineered building products this year. In August, the company broke ground on a 58,000-square-foot expansion at an existing facility in Southeastern Kansas, expected to create up to 60 new skilled trade positions over the next year.
