Apex Power Conversion, a solar and energy storage solutions provider, officially inaugurated its U.S. headquarters and manufacturing facility in Mesa with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. This was held in coordination with the American Clean Power Association’s CLEANPOWER 2025 Conference & Exhibition in Phoenix. The new facility marks a significant investment in the region’s clean energy sector. Apex Power plans to hire up to 300 employees initially, with a long-term goal of expanding its workforce to 700 by 2029.

MESA, AZ (May 19, 2025) — Apex Power Conversion, a solar and storage company, today celebrated the ribbon cutting of its U.S. headquarters and manufacturing facility in Mesa, Arizona in conjunction with the American Clean Power Association’s CLEANPOWER 2025 Expo in Phoenix. Apex Power will initially employ up to 300 people, with plans to employ up to 700 by 2029.

Representing an over $60 million investment, the 206,000-square-foot facility is currently used for customer engagement and product training, and will be expanded for advanced multi-megawatt power conversion manufacturing for integrating renewables and energy storage with the grid. The first full units are expected to be manufactured in the first quarter of 2026.

“At Apex Power, we are relentless in pursuing our mission to develop and manufacture the most advanced power conversion systems – technologies that directly enable the integration of renewable energy and storage onto our power grids,” said Jacob Marshall, President & Co-Founder, Apex Power Conversion. “It is a humbling honor to launch Apex Power’s headquarters and manufacturing operations in my family’s hometown of Mesa. Apex’s culture is grounded in our purpose and our partnerships, and we look forward to showing the world exactly what we are capable of.”

“We’re incredibly proud to celebrate the opening of Apex Power’s U.S. headquarters and power conversion manufacturing facility,” said Sandra Watson, President and CEO of the Arizona Commerce Authority. “With a commitment to quality and reliability, Apex Power will manufacture high-performance inverter systems, strengthening the state’s power grid resilience to support the growth of our renewable and clean energy sectors.”

“The opening of Apex Power’s United States headquarters furthers Greater Phoenix as a hub for climate technology and alternative energy production,” said Chris Camacho, President and CEO, Greater Phoenix Economic Council. “The accessibility of partnerships, growing power grid, and diverse clusters in advanced technology will help Apex cement itself to play a key role in the region’s efforts to advance clean energy.”

In Mesa, Apex Power will access the growing infrastructure, supply chain and workforce pipeline in Arizona. Located on Elliot and Signal Butte roads, the facility will complement the company’s research & development and manufacturing production in Spain.

With the maturation of advanced manufacturing combined with a growing population in the market, Apex Power will support the state’s power grid expansion and clean energy demand with its manufacturing of advanced inverter systems.

“This investment not only brings quality jobs and innovation to our community, it also strengthens Mesa’s reputation as a destination for global companies and forward-thinking industries,” said Mesa Mayor Mark Freeman. “We’re excited to welcome Apex Power and look forward to the positive impact they’ll have on our economy, workforce, and future.”

“Apex Power’s decision to locate in southeast Mesa reinforces our position as a hub for energy innovation and advanced manufacturing,” said Mesa Vice Mayor Scott Somers. “This investment means high-quality jobs, cutting-edge technology, and a stronger, more resilient energy future for our region. We are proud to welcome Apex Power to the Mesa business community.”

Mortenson was a key development and construction partner for the project, and helped Apex Power find a location at Pursuit Park within the Elliot Road Technology Corridor.

“A significant portion of Mortenson’s work is dedicated to advancing renewable energy, and Battery Energy Storage Solutions are one of the fastest-growing segments in that space,” said Chase Gibbs, Director of Business Development, Mortenson. “Our partnership with Apex Power Conversion on their Mesa facility reflects a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, U.S.-based inverter and storage solutions—reinforcing our focus on building a cleaner, more resilient energy future for both our communities and our planet.”

Tempe-based Dutch Bros Coffee plans to acquire 51 former Salad and Go locations after the fast-casual chain filed for bankruptcy, with the ongoing cyclosporiasis outbreak contributing to its collapse. Court documents filed Tuesday in federal bankruptcy court identify a Dutch Bros-affiliated LLC as the buyer of dozens of Salad and Go restaurants in Arizona and Nevada, along with leases for additional former locations in Texas and Oklahoma. #saladandgo #dutchbros #dutchbroscoffee #tempeaz #drivethru
Salad and Go filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Monday and announced it will permanently close all of its locations, serving its final meals Wednesday. The Gilbert-founded drive-thru restaurant chain submitted voluntary bankruptcy petitions in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas in Houston.

The company said declining consumer demand, rapid expansion challenges, and rising operating costs made its business unsustainable. Salad and Go also said the Cyclospora foodborne illness outbreak in July hurt sales, even though health officials did not link the chain to the contamination. #saladandgo #gilbertaz #cyclospora #bankruptcy #chapter11
