MCM Engineering II Expands Enoch, Utah, Operations

Area Development News Desk

01/12/2026

MCM Engineering II, a manufacturer of custom medium and low voltage electrical switchgear, plans to expand its operations in Enoch, Utah. The $168 million project is expected to create 250 jobs in Iron County over the next ten years.

The project is being supported by a post-performance tax reduction. The corporate incentive is part of the state’s Rural Economic Development Tax Increment Financing (REDTIF) program.

“LS ELECTRIC America proudly supports Operation Gigawatt in Utah through its local operating company, MCM Engineering II,” said Charlie Chunghee Lee, president and CEO of LS ELECTRIC America and president of MCM Engineering II. “With the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity’s support, MCM Engineering is expanding its manufacturing base, boosting production capacity, and growing its workforce thus strengthening LS ELECTRIC America’s U.S. operations while fueling Utah’s and Iron County’s economic growth. As Iron County grows, Enoch City will emerge as the hub of our U.S. manufacturing where innovation and excellence will converge to shape the future of America’s energy industry.”

MCM Engineering II provides design, engineering, fabrication, and construction services for custom switchgear solutions, including power distribution centers and sheltered aisle walk-ins. The company serves various industries including utilities, mining, and renewable energy.

“MCM Engineering’s expansion is a testament to the strength of Utah’s advanced manufacturing sector and our commitment to rural economic growth,”noted Jefferson Moss, executive director of GOEO. “By expanding its footprint in Enoch City, MCM is not only creating hundreds of high-paying jobs, but also strengthening our capacity to build and maintain critical infrastructure that powers utilities, mining, and renewables.”

“MCM Engineering II’s expansion reflects a continued commitment to the area and builds on Iron County’s long history as a hub for advanced manufacturing in Utah,” added David Johnson, economic development director for Cedar City and Iron County. “By creating 250 new jobs over the next 10 years, MCM Engineering II’s long-term investment directly strengthens Utah’s energy infrastructure, supply chain resilience, and economic competitiveness.”
