Charlotte Economic News:  More Energy Jobs Announced by Toshiba

More Jobs for Charlotte's Energy Businesses AnnouncedCharlotte NC:  Charlotte is in the news once again this week as the “New Energy Capital” of the world, already a national hub for the energy industry!

Toshiba will increase its presence in Charlotte as well as having recently announced its participation in the 2,700-megawatt South Texas project, partnering with The Shaw Group.

Toshiba America Nuclear Energy will add 25 to 40 new jobs in their Charlotte office over the next several months, says Duncan Kane, director of Toshiba's Charlotte human resources.

These 25 to 40 new Toshiba jobs will all be directly related to the South Texas project, Kane says.  More jobs are expected beyond the initial hirings as well.  “Longer term, (Toshiba) will hire additional staff both here in Charlotte and at the (South Texas) site as needed to support the project.”

Since 2009, major energy industry expansions and relocations have been announced by several companies such as Siemens Energy, Areva, Babcock & Wilcox, SPX and ABB Group (to Huntersville), adding many new jobs to the Charlotte Metro area.

Hi Debe and I see you are up late on Saturday night/morning as well.

I think Toshiba is a very good company although I'm currently using a powerhouse Dell laptop and Robin purchased the same model as mine on my recommendation.

That is great news for the Charlotte area to have Toshiba investing there and hopefully more businesses will follow.  I think this US economy needs to bring back the idea of making and producing products here in the good old USA which is what helped make us great in the first place.
