Scaling U.S. Manufacturing for Advanced Compressor & Turboexpander Demand
Key Takeaways
- Understand the specific requirements of the energy transition like larger-scale turbomachinery.
- Learn how specialized facility upgrades are essential for the assembly, modularization, and safe transport of multi-story industrial equipment.
Atlas Copco Gas and Process is expanding its U.S. manufacturing footprint, specifically with a new high-bay expansion in Voorheesville, NY, to meet the rising demand for larger and more complex integrally geared compressors and turboexpanders. This "local for local" initiative is driven by the scaling needs of traditional markets like LNG and emerging energy transition sectors such as carbon capture (CCUS) and industrial heat pumps. The expansion integrates advanced infrastructure and sustainable facility designs, including the use of 100% renewable electricity, while simultaneously investing in regional workforce development through new apprenticeship programs.
