ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp has announced that Aspen Aerogels, a technology leader in aerogel-based sustainability and electrification solutions, plans to construct an advanced manufacturing facility at Bulloch County’s Southern Gateway Commerce Park. Aspen intends to invest a minimum of $325 million and to create more than 250 advanced manufacturing jobs at its new site near Statesboro, where production is expected to begin in late 2023.

“Aspen Aerogels has put their confidence in Georgia, our people, and the growing electric mobility sector in our state, and we are excited to add this American company to our rapidly expanding EV portfolio,” Kemp said in a news release. “Every day, we are utilizing our many assets to bring jobs to hard-working Georgians in every corner of the Peach State, and this is just the latest to come to Bulloch County and southeast Georgia.”
