Governor Shapiro Announces $353M Investment, 735 Jobs in Pittsburgh
Significant Investment in Pittsburgh Signals Eos Energy's Strategic Expansion
Pittsburgh's North Shore is set to become the new headquarters for Eos Energy Enterprises, a prominent player in the zinc-based battery sector. This strategic relocation is part of a substantial $353 million investment aimed at expanding the company's operations in Pennsylvania, specifically in Allegheny County.
This move is expected to significantly boost the local economy by creating 735 new jobs. Governor Shapiro has been instrumental in securing this investment, which not only relocates Eos Energy's headquarters but also enhances its manufacturing capacity in Western Pennsylvania.
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is supporting this venture with a $22 million investment, underscoring its commitment to fostering economic growth and innovation in the region. This financial backing is pivotal in facilitating Eos Energy's expansion and operational augmentation.
