The investment will include the construction of a new 250,000-square-foot manufacturing facility located at the Virginia Beach Innovation Park.
“ASC is proud to announce our continued expansion in partnership with the Commonwealth of Virginia and City of Virginia Beach who have supported our significant business expansion since 2019,” said ASC CEO Margaret Shaia. “This next phase of our expansion will allow us to continue to execute our strategy as the leader in power generation integration, again doubling our capacity in a very dynamic and fast paced environment supporting the data center industry. In conjunction with our expansion, ASC will continue to provide opportunities for leadership development and expanded skills training driving enhanced standards of living for our dedicated workforce. Our employees are the foundation of what ASC values and we remain focused on providing further opportunities for their success.”
To support the project Governor Youngkin approved a $1.75 million grant from the Commonwealth’s Opportunity Fund. Additionally the City of Virginia Beach provided a $921,869.40 land purchase discount, and the Virginia Beach Economic Development Authority provided a local cash grant of $828,130.60.

Smith. “This investment is a testament to the strength of our region’s advanced manufacturing sector and the skilled workforce that supports it.
