LG Energy Solution Arizona hosted a special event Friday to provide construction updates on its $5.5 billion Queen Creek manufacturing facility, as well as celebrate the opening of a workforce training center in Pinal County that will benefit the South Korean-based company.

The facility, at Pecos and Ironwood roads, just east of where State Route 24 currently ends, is expected to create 1,500 new jobs by 2007, according to a press release from LGES.

Richard Ra, president of LG Energy Solution Arizona, hosted Queen Creek Mayor Julia Wheatley, Pinal County Supervisors Mike Goodman and Jeff Serdy, President and CEO of the Arizona Commerce Authority Sandra Watson, and President and CEO of Arizona Chamber of Commerce & Industry Danny Seiden at the event.

Ra announced construction of the cylindrical battery facility is now about halfway complete “with the aim to start sample production in the middle of next year and commercial production by the year end,” according to an LGES press release.
