A new Generac manufacturing facility in Beaver Dam is expected to unlock growth at the company’s Oshkosh plant, according to BizTimes Milwaukee.
The 345,000-square-foot plant is located within the Highway 151 Business Park in Beaver Dam.
Approximately 130 people are currently working at the site. That number is expected to increase to 320 by the end of 2025. The building can hold up to 250 employees per shift.
The plant currently houses five production lines. Three are already running, with the remaining two ramping up in the coming weeks. There’s also room in the building for a sixth production line if needed.
By consolidating the production of units previously outsourced to Mexico—including units ranging from 48KW to 1MW—Beaver Dam unlocks growth at other Generac facilities including its plant in Oshkosh, which can now focus on larger megawatt units to serve the growing data center market, and its Eagle plant, which is expanding fabrication capabilities.
