AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Manufacturing Jobs: QT Corp. plans to invest $49.2 million in a Goldsboro power-controls plant, creating 188 jobs with average annual pay above $63,000. Wayne County approved a $1.3 million incentive package. Energy Costs: Duke Energy and data center companies agreed to new rules intended to make large power users pay more and shield North Carolina customers from data-center costs. Relief at the Pump: State lawmakers passed a temporary suspension of the 41-cent-per-gallon gas tax through Nov. 30. Drivers may not see the full savings right away, and Gov. Josh Stein’s action is still pending in the latest reports. Small Business: North Carolina made $2 million available to support innovative small businesses. Semiconductors: Wolfspeed signed a $1.5 billion federal loan agreement to support silicon-carbide production and research. Development Pressure: An $84 million Cary rail project could force some businesses to relocate.
