EnergyTek Corporation has announced plans to invest at least $275 million in a new manufacturing facility in Moultrie, Colquitt County. The company expects the project will create up to 1,300 jobs once it reaches full operations after a multi-year ramp-up.

Pat Wilson, Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Economic Development, commented on the announcement: “Georgia’s commitment to innovation continues to attract companies like EnergyTek that are investing and creating good jobs in every corner of our state. We congratulate our partners in Colquitt County on this important milestone for the Citizen Business Park.”

The facility will produce utility-scale and commercial solar panels, inverters, electric vehicle charging systems, micro grids, and other renewable energy components. Dr. Cristian Toma, CEO of EnergyTek, stated: “Through this multi-phase investment, EnergyTek will be able to manufacture multiple aspects of the energy and electrification supply chain, simplifying vertical integration. Georgia’s industrial ecosystem and world-class logistics will support efficient distribution and supply chain integration as EnergyTek scales up production in Moultrie over the next few years.”

The new operations will be located at Citizen Business Park in Moultrie, which is designated as a “Georgia Ready for Accelerated Development” (GRAD) site. Construction is scheduled to begin on the first phase during the fourth quarter of 2025. The company plans to hire for management, engineering, production, and administrative roles over several years.

Ross Dekle, Chairman of the Moultrie-Colquitt County Development Authority said: “We are honored that EnergyTek has chosen Moultrie and Colquitt County as the site of its new manufacturing facility. This significant investment will create high-quality, well-compensated manufacturing jobs for our residents and represents a meaningful contribution to the continued growth and prosperity of our community.”

Tina Herring from the Georgia Department of Economic Development Global Commerce team assisted with this project alongside local authorities including the City of Moultrie, Georgia Power, and Georgia Quick Start.

EnergyTek Corporation specializes in providing low-cost electricity infrastructure by vertically integrating power generation, management, and distribution for commercial and utility-scale customers.
