TMEIC

TMEIC Corporation Americas, a subsidiary of TMEIC Corporation (Japan), announced plans to relocate its headquarters to Houston, Texas, in March 2025. Concurrently, underscoring its commitment to U.S.-based PV manufacturing, TMEIC will establish a 144,000 ft2 facility in Brookshire, Texas, dedicated to manufacturing utility-scale PV inverters.

The decision to relocate its headquarters from Roanoke, Virginia to Houston, Texas and significantly expand manufacturing capabilities aligns with TMEIC’s strategic goals for growth in renewable energy technology, domestic-based manufacturing and bolstering its global sustainability efforts. The headquarters relocation will foster innovation, accommodate TMEIC’s expanding team and strengthen its ability to serve clients. TMEIC will maintain its office in Roanoke, Virginia, remaining devoted to designing, developing and engineering advanced automation systems, large AC motors, and variable frequency drive systems for various industrial sectors worldwide.

“We are excited to make these investments for an expanded presence in the Houston area with the relocation of our headquarters and the opening of our new manufacturing facility. These investments and expansions will potentially create up to 300 jobs in the local community,” said Manmeet S. Bhatia, President and CEO of TMEIC Corporation Americas. “This strategic expansion underscores TMEIC’s dedication to the renewable energy industry, advancing clean energy technology, maintaining strong client relationships, and competing on a global basis while proudly manufacturing in the United States.”

Scheduled to commence operations in October 2024, the new Brookshire facility will be situated near TMEIC’s existing uninterruptible power supply and medium voltage drive manufacturing plant in Katy, Texas. Once operational, it will have the initial capacity to produce 9 GW annually, with future expansion availability based on market demands.
